This is a *totally* bogus explanation.

This is an equivalent pattern to '== 0' which is commonly used.

The patch is still doing the right thing, but only accidentally, for 
another reason, it's because we are using ->multi_instance in an 
inconsistent fashion:

 kernel/cpu.c:  if (!step->multi_instance) {
 kernel/cpu.c:  if (sp->multi_instance == false)
 kernel/cpu.c:  if (!sp->multi_instance)
 kernel/cpu.c:  if (sp->multi_instance) {

But that's really just by accident - if all usages were of the
'== true/false' pattern then this wouldn't be necessary.

Thanks,

Ingo
