As we want gpio_chip .get() calls to be able to return negative
error codes and propagate to drivers, we need to go over all
drivers and make sure their return values are clamped to [0,1].
We do this by using the ret = !!(val) design pattern.

Linus,
Is this particular change done to simplify verification via Coccinelle? Otherwise,
this value is already clamped to 0/1.

The current definition of ichx_gpio_get() is just a wrapper for
ichx_read_bit(), which clamps the return value to 0 and 1.

Suppose there were an opportunity to catch an error with these GPIOs. In that
case, ichx_gpio_get() would be the best candidate to return an error code. I
think this particular change should be dropped.

No this was my manual inspection, which isn't very accurate. When
in doubt, I made a patch. I'll drop this then, thanks!

Yours,
