While you are right in principle, the whole driver is so old and uses
this style. So, for such cases we, as maintainers, prefer less
deviation work, i.e. keeping the
style is a good thing to do.

Since it's about integer-as-a-boolean, test for bit 0 would be
sufficient, i.e. ~BIT(0). Though, I find this form not so readable
since the input comes actually from the user.
It would be nice to have just kstrtobool() called instead for such
options, but see above. It would need a (huge) refactoring of the
driver first.
