Properly chosing the bool type is not what is being handled by the
patch. Easiest way to convert would be using double inversion:

u32 func_encode = func | (!!is_Pf << IGU_FID_ENCODE_IS_PF_SHIFT);

The parenthesis are not needed due to operator precedence, but is more
clear this way (to me at least).
