I'm not a fan of this also. The alternative would be to:

static inline struct param_d *global_add_param_bool(const char *name,
		int (*set)(struct param_d *p, void *priv),
		int (*get)(struct param_d *p, void *priv),
		int *value, void *priv)
{
	return dev_add_param_bool(&global_device, name, get, set,
			value, priv;
}

(We would still export global_device but could convert the above to non
static inline functions later should we have to).
