Hi Amir,

I'm a bit in two minds on this one.  It's not a size critical structure
and the advantage of bools is they make it clear the thing really is
true or false.

Another element here is that this is a platform data structure and unless
we have users in the kernel tree, the chances that we'll maintain it's
existence at all as we look to move this driver out of staging is very
small!

So slightly marginal advantage to the change on a structure that I certainly
hope is shortly going away!

Sorry, but I'm not convinced and won't be applying it.

If you want to work on this driver though that would be great and I'm happy
to do a review of it to highlight what other elements need cleaning up.
Just say on the list and either I'll take a look or one of our other
reviewers will.

Thanks,

Jonathan
