Now that I look again this isn't actually effective anyway, we would
need to run the guest code at emulated EL1 which for something that's
basically just a double check.  I'll just delete the extra runs.

The conversions between int and and boolean values are part of the C
spec and widely used within the kernel, we don't need to open code it.
A zero in a boolean context is false, any other integer is true.
Similarly false in an integer context is 0, and true is 1.

Thanks.
