OK, that's better.

Yes I agree with this suggestion.  However all of the other
needs_*() functions return int and are marked inline (neither
of which I would normally do).

You want me to add a patch to update the others too?  If I
do that it will look more like this:

static bool needs_swap_endian(struct fsl_qspi *q)
{
         return !!(q->devtype_data->quirks & QUADSPI_QUIRK_SWAP_ENDIAN);
}
