Merged, thanks.

I actually had not seen "bool : 1" used, but you're right, there are
several.  There aren't any in drivers/pci, though, so I'm inclined to
stay consistent with "unsigned int : 1" unless there's an advantage,
and then I'd probably convert all of drivers/pci over.

My rule of thumb has been [1], where Linus suggests "unsigned int
percpu:1", but maybe that should be updated.

Agreed, thanks, I removed that dead code.

I didn't do this because it sounds like it might be a separate patch.
But maybe Sathy can do this in the next round?

Nice, thanks!  I made this change, too.

Thanks a lot for reviewing this!
