"Fix Warning" sounds like you're addressing a real compiler warning,
please use a more suitable subject if the warning in question is from
your own tool. Like "nfc: refactor unnecessary comparison to bool".

rnr is a bool, this is perfectly legal, there are also comparisons to
false which you don't fix, and nobody has touched this driver in 8
years so polishing this code is not exactly worth the effort.

I'm not applying this patch, sorry.
