I'll take the patch as is.  If anyone wants to do the strtobool conversion
as a follow up that would be great as well.  As a staging driver which doesn't
terribly closely correspond to any standard abi's I'd be inclined to not worry
to much about breaking userspace code that relies on the exact comparison
currently used as long as the obvious case still works.

Patch applied to togreg branch of
