To be honest, I just saw that it was a negative idx and freaked out. I
didn't look at any context...

You're right that we don't to allow the user to spam the dmesg. Ideally
we would return an error. A second best solution is to do a pr_err_once().

I just saw the name and wondered why it was a u8. bool does make more
sense and works fine for the bitwise stuff. But I don't really care at
all.
