I'd avoid boolean and use int and define EVENT_TYPE_TRANSIENT BIT(1) and EVENT_TYPE_FF_MT BIT(0) for example. So something like "supported_event_types" can have all types supported.
But this has quite some implications on your implementation, so your complete solution would be more interesting to see. Keep it simple and focus on only this one issue of enabling freefall (FF_MT registers) for the devices that currently use transient registers.
thanks
