The main intention of the change is to remove bitwise operations on
GPIO level value as a preceding change before updating gpiolib
callbacks to utilize bool type to represent GPIO level.

No functional change.

Write this as an if/else so the reader doesn't have to wonder why you've
missed the handling of the false case.

the only objection I have is that the resulting code will be two lines
longer. If you think this code is not clear enough (is "val" vs. "value"
misleading?), I'll change the rest of my patches, which contain the same
logic structure, please let me know.

Especially after the unrelated style change thing earlier on (which
meant I was reading things more carefully than usual) it'd be good to
make things as clear as possible - you're right that the val vs value
thing isn't helping either.  

Like I say I am a bit surprised that the int/bool conversion doesn't do
the right thing without any code changes other than the type of the
parameter but ICBW, I didn't actually check.

got your concern, will send an update.

My tested compilers do the work right, but I can not be sure about the
whole variety of compilers, well, probably I should just follow the
standard, which in turn is expected to be quite volatile in future
revisions regarding usage of "_Bool" or future "bool" type.

If we assume the preferred Linux kernel style to use true/false
constants for boolean variables only (see the reference to
bool{init,return}.cocci), then even if bitwise and arithmetic operations
on bool type are understandable to a compiler, but probably "false <<
true" (or whatever is hidden under a variable name) is not quite
aesthetic for a human eye. This is not a technical argument though, and
I'm not sure if any clear code style policy related to the case is agreed.

Yes, this is exactly the point I was trying to make.

I don't think it makes sense to discuss technical aspects of the
proposed change, as I mentioned in the discussion yesterday I see no
technical issues at this point, and my changes are described as
nonfunctional.

The _nontechnical_ problem I see (well, may be I'm just blowing it up)
is a Linux kernel code style policy problem, to my knowledge the policy
of using bitwise and arithmetic operations on bool type variables and
constants is not defined, and since the policy is not yet defined I'm
glad to take part in its discussion now.

As an example of one related policy is change of 0/1 constants to
false/true, when they are attended by bool type, see c2b49ae678b ,
5c216cc3f37 , 7eef08554ca , bool{init,return}.cocci etc.

One may say that the changes above has no value (however it might be
related to ABI treatment of _Bool/bool), personally I agree with this
accepted code policy.

Another code policy question is to which degree arithmetic and bitwise
operations on bool variables and constants are acceptable. In my
personal opinion arithmetic and bitwise operations on bool variables are
quite undesired, that's why I attempt to replace them in advance in some
sound/soc/codecs/* functions before changing the type of input variable
representing GPIO level from int to bool. I guess in your personal
opinion this proposed change has no technical sense, I respect your
opinion and do not insist on my answer to the policy.

My little deal is to let you know that there is another opinion on the
subject and send you the changes for review and ack/nak verdict.

I don't believe this is the case.  From C99, section 6.5.3.3, paragraph 5:

The result of the logical negation operator ! is 0 if the value of its
operand compares unequal to 0,  1 if the value of its operand compares
equal to 0. The result has type int.

Thus, it's defined that !!(bool_var) and !!(int_var) will return an
int that is either 0 or 1.  This has always been part of the C
standard and I have a very hard time believing that a future standard
will change that.  It would break so much code to do so and I don't
the case for what it will improve.

So I don't see the point in changing:
!!value << SHIFT;
into:
unsigned int temp_val;
if (value)
   temp_val = 1 << SHIFT;
else
   temp_val = 0;

The former is shorter and simpler and completely defined by the C standard.

please excuse me for possible misunderstanding, you don't believe that
I'm interested in discussing a _nontechnical_ problem stated above?

C99 is a strict superset over Linux coding style (e.g. remember //
comments or "register" specifier), so let's forget about.
