I'm curious: do you have evidence that this does anything useful? I
guess you're expecting it to save .text space, right? Stack usage and
execution time differences should be irrelevant--it's not in a
critical section and the difference should be tiny anyway. As far as
.text segment goes, it's not obvious to me that the compiler will use
fewer instructions to manipulate bits compared to booleans.
Doing a super simple "ls -ah" on vmlinux (unstripped):
Before: 224820232 bytes
After: 224820376 bytes
...so your change made it _bigger_. OK, so running "strip
--strip-debug" on those:
Before: 26599464 bytes
After: 26599464 bytes
...so exactly the same. I tried finding some evidence using "readelf -ah":
Before:
[ 2] .text PROGBITS ffffffc010010000 00020000
0000000000b03508 0000000000000000 WAX 0 0 65536
[ 3] .rodata PROGBITS ffffffc010b20000 00b30000
00000000002e84b3 0000000000000000 WAMS 0 0 4096
After:
[ 2] .text PROGBITS ffffffc010010000 00020000
0000000000b03508 0000000000000000 WAX 0 0 65536
[ 3] .rodata PROGBITS ffffffc010b20000 00b30000
00000000002e84b3 0000000000000000 WAMS 0 0 4096
Maybe you have some evidence showing an improvement? Ah, OK. I
disassembled ti_sn_bridge_enable() and your patch saves 12 bytes, but
I guess maybe alignment washes it out in reality...
In terms of readability / conventions, I personally find this change a
bit of a wash. I mean, I guess I originally implemented it as an array
and I thought that was the most readable, but I like bitfields fine
too. If everyone loves it then I won't object, but to me it feels like
touching lines of code for something that's personal preference. ;-)

In any case, since it does save 12 bytes:
