The original implementation of vq_present() relied on aggressive inlining in order for the compiler to know that the code is correct, due to some const-casting issues. This was causing sparse and clang to complain, while GCC compiled cleanly. Commit0c529ff789addressed this problem, but since vq_present() is no longer a function, there is now no implicit casting of the returned value to the return type (bool). In set_sve_vls(), this uncast bit value is compared against a bool, and so may spuriously compare as unequal when both are nonzero. As a result, KVM may reject valid SVE vector length configurations as invalid, and vice versa. Fix it by forcing the returned value to a bool.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
