Thanks,

That's a more direct revert of 640e77466e69 ("staging: mmal-vchiq: Avoid
use of bool in structures") indeed.

I see Stefan was concerned about clarifying that this won't affect
firmware or userspace, it may still be good to hear from Dave to
confirm, but my understanding of 640e77466e69, means I believe this is
safe. I don't expect this structure to be used as any kind of ABI to
firmware or userspace.
