You've made cbuf[] exactly just big enough.
If anyone breathes on this code it could overflow.
You really should use scnprintf() for safety.

Or just:
	if (gedf->stop_on_error)
		return simple_read_from_buffer(buffer, count, ppos, "true\n", 5);
	return simple_read_from_buffer(buffer, count, ppos, "false\n", 6);
