but bdecrypted is a u8, not a boolean type. So setting it to "false"
does not seem correct here, right?

Also, the name of the variable should really be changed.

But, step back, are you _SURE_ you can change this structure at all?
At a quick glance it kind of looks like it comes directly from the
hardware, or am I mis-reading the driver code?

Have you tested this series on an actual device?
