Part of the reason was to add a future IP support where it is not all
ETM4. Again it doesn't really matter. I could change it.

We don't return an error from the caller of these functions. So, all we
need to know is, if the operation was success or failure. Having bool
makes it explicit for the checkings, rather than documenting the
expected return values. Hence the choice. But I am open to changing them
if you prefer it that way.
