There are actually three states here. No property means to use the 
default value set in the firmware. The enable parameter means that the 
default should be overwritten and the feature should be explicitly 
enabled. Disable means the feature should be explicitly disabled. An 
earlier version of this patch had one parameter per feature which needed 
to be set to 0, 1, or 2 which correspond the the values of an enum in 
the driver. It was suggested that the current approach would be clearer 
then setting 0, 1, or 2.

Thanks for reviewing,
Andrew
