(Other definitions for kneecap that I've seen before include "one going on bender?" , "Joint protection" , "The informal patella (7)" , "part of joint" , "Bone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Telegraph, the King Feature Syndicate, The Times, The Sunday Times, The Independent, the Sydney Morning Herald, the Evening Standard and The Guardian.
