But for a simple WARN_ON() call:

void test(unsigned long b)
{
WARN_ON(b);
}

Without your change with GCC you get:

00000000000012d0 <.test>:
12d0: 0b 03 00 00 tdnei r3,0
12d4: 4e 80 00 20 blr


With the !! change you get:

00000000000012d0 <.test>:
12d0: 31 23 ff ff addic r9,r3,-1
12d4: 7d 29 19 10 subfe r9,r9,r3
12d8: 0b 09 00 00 tdnei r9,0
12dc: 4e 80 00 20 blr
