Yeah, but bool is int so there will be no implicit conversion... I
guess it is a convention. In theory !! is the proper conversion to
bool but if bool==int then it's essentially conversion to 1. I am not
sure what's the benefit, maybe for some wrong code which would do
comparisons on result like if (exynos5422_asv_parse_bin2() == TRUE)...
