Implicit conversion to bool handles it just fine without those (and as 
always, sure there are many examples in the kernel with those but it 
doesn't mean we should keep adding more).

Although now that I look more into the surrounding code, it seems that 
is_rs485 only used in the if condition so having a local bool for that 
seems a bit overkill and the if condition could have that check.

Okay, thanks for checking.
