Arnd,

rtlwifi and rtl8xxxu are two distinct drivers managed by different
people. I'd be really nice if you could split this into a per driver
patch.

That said, the use of char in rtl8xxxu is all as a flag indicator, so I
don't think the s/char/s8/ conversion is justified. I used char rather
than ugly bool to reduce the size of the struct.
Makes sense, I'll resend without that change. If anything, the flag
should become u8, not s8 anyway.
Does bool:8 work ?
Maybe, but bool is such an ugly datatype, so I'd rather use the other
ones.
