Current implementation of show_bool_val() passes "val" parameter of pointer
type as a last parameter to print_bool():
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ethtool/ethtool.git/tree/netlink/netlink.h#n131
...
static inline void show_bool_val(const char *key, const char *fmt, uint8_t *val)
{
	if (is_json_context()) {
		if (val)
>			print_bool(PRINT_JSON, key, NULL, val);
	} else {
...
print_bool() expects the last parameter to be bool:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ethtool/ethtool.git/tree/json_print.c#n153
...
void print_bool(enum output_type type,
		const char *key,
		const char *fmt,
		bool value)
{
...
Current show_bool_val() implementation converts "val" pointer to bool while
calling show_bool_val(). As a result show_bool_val() always prints the value
as "true" as long as it gets a non-null pointer to the boolean value, even if
the referred boolean value is false.

I'm assuming that val is never NULL :)

Simon, thank you for taking a look!
Yes, the "if (val)" check on line 130 guarantees that "print_bool()"
on line 131 is called only if val is not null.

Thanks, that is pretty obvious now you point it out.
Looks good to me :)
