Maybe we can simply remove it then, and see if it breaks. Given the
feedback from Allwinner, I'd prefer to have the behaviour they
recommend though, at least from MMC experience, it proved to be
needed.

That warning has been introduced pretty recently, so we do indeed have
some drivers that use a bool in their structure.

Yeah, I don't worry about those.
