Sure, rename would be fine.

As for a comment, maybe something like

bool aif_float; /* Enabled for floating interrupt assist */
bool aif_host; /* Require host delivery */

...

You actually asked for this already on Jan 19 :), here's a copy of that
response inline here:

I can add a small line comment for each, like:

AIF_FLOAT 1 /* Floating interrupts enabled */
AIF_HOST 2 /* Host delivery forced */
But here's a bit more detail:

On SET:
AIF_FLOAT = 1 means enable the interrupt forwarding assist for floating
interrupt delivery
AIF_FLOAT = 0 means to disable it.
AIF_HOST = 1 means the assist will always deliver the interrupt to the
host and let the host inject it
AIF_HOST = 0 host only gets interrupts when firmware can't deliver

on GET, we just indicate the current settings from the most recent SET,
meaning:
AIF_FLOAT = 1 interrupt forwarding assist is currently active
AIF_FLOAT = 0 interrupt forwarding assist is not currently active
AIF_HOST = 1 interrupt forwarding will always go through host
AIF_HOST = 0 interrupt forwarding will only go through the host when
necessary

My thought would be add the line comments in this patch and then the
additional detail in a follow-on patch that adds vfio zPCI to
Documentation/S390
