For steady flow the given equation gives $\nabla H=-\rho \omega \times u$. Dotting with $u$ yields $u\cdot \nabla H=0$, so $H$ is constant along each streamline. It can have different values on different streamlines. Dotting with $\omega$ also makes it constant along vortex lines where they are defined.

If the flow is additionally irrotational, $\omega =0$ and hence $\nabla H=0$. Thus $H$ is one constant on each connected fluid region, the stronger global Bernoulli conclusion.
