This is C, why are you messing around with a structure and "getters and
setters" for a set of simple values?

static bool force_sysfs_fallback = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK);

Then just read/write the foolish thing, don't make this more complex
than is needed please.

There is a "getter and setters are evil" rant somewhere out there
online, if you really need me to dig up the old tired arguments :)

thanks,

Ok, you directly access it here, but your later patches get a lot more
"complex" it seems...

thanks,
