I'm not objecting to this, but for some reason I thought that bit fields
could only be a 'unsigned int'. Or am I just used to C88 or some such
really old spec of the C standard?
It's used elsewhere in the kernel in quite a few places, e.g. in
"kernel/printk.c" for the `flushed` member of `static struct cont`.
C99 certainly allows `_Bool` bit-fields (and a `bool` is a `_Bool` in
the kernel).
