Then it should be defined as boolean.

This is however not what your patch description said it does; it only
mentioned the incorrect register assignment. Maybe we shoudl do the
following then:

        ...
        } else {
                bool pressed = !(ret & DA9052_STATUSA_NONKEY);

                input_report_key(onkey->input, KEY_POWER, pressed);
                input_sync(onkey->input);

                if (pressed)
                        schedule_work(...);
        }

And mention that we are changing polling (no longer re-poll on read
errors) in addition to changing register/bits used.

Thanks.
