We have already few similar implementation and a lot of code that can benefit of the yesno() helper. Consolidate yesno() helpers under string.h hood.

Looks like a good idea to me, feel free to add an Acked-by: Christian König christian.koenig@amd.com to the series.
Thanks.
But looking at the use cases for this, wouldn't it make more sense to teach kprintf some new format modifier for this?
As a next step? IIRC Sakari has at some point the series converted yesno and Co. to something which I don't remember the details of.
Guys, what do you think?
Honestly, I think that yesno() is much easier to understand than %py. And %py[DOY] looks really scary. It has been suggested at https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/YCqaNnr7ynRydczE@smile.fi.intel.com/#t
Yes, enabledisable() is hard to parse but it is still self-explaining and can be found easily by cscope. On the contrary, %pyD will likely print some python code and it is not clear if it would be compatible with v3. I am just kidding but you get the picture.
