It should not be a real problem by test before.
ath10k_sdio_is_fast_dump_supported return true in test before.
and fast_dump get true from ath10k_sdio_is_fast_dump_supported in 
ath10k_sdio_fw_crashed_dump.

the risk maybe like this:
u32 param in ath10k_sdio_is_fast_dump_supported is 4 bytes, and bool is 
1 byte.
if Gcc does not do any convertion from u32 to bool, then the bool value 
will only
get the lower byte(byte 0) of the 4 bytes, then maybe get an mistake 
result.

I did a disassemble of sdio.o with/without below change, and dump 
sdio.o, it have no difference in this place:
I change send a patch with below change if needed.
