The one-bit bitfields are assigned true (1) or false (0) and checked for them respectively. While it should work either way and -1 is true as well it is more clear to see what's going on when using an unsigned int because 1 doesn't silently become -1 behind the label true.
Signed-off-by: Martin Kepplinger <mart...@posteo.de> --- Thanks for looking at it. This is more of a question: Does this make sense to you now? I can be mistaken. It just wasn't totally clear to me at first sight and even though it should be, why not try to improve it. sparse called it 'dubious' before the change.
