Comment 10 for bug 1670634

Carsten, I am currently thinking there are two possibilities here. Maybe three.

1) The fix I submitted is not in the kernel(s) you are running.
2) The s390 compiler does not produce the necessary code to implicitly convert long int to bool.
3) You are hitting a different bug that just happens to look the same.

For #2, a simple compiler test could be done to check what code is produced when assigning a long int value to a bool (GCC _Bool). If you want to pursue that let me know. I am not familiar with s390 object code, so we might need someone to interpret the objdump. As far as I can tell, the s390 Linux kernel does use GCC _Bool for the data type "bool", so it would then be a matter of what code the s390 GCC produces in this case.
