I've queued the patch on modules-next for v7.3-rc1, with the following
minor changes:

* Added a short description of the motivation to the commit message:

  Support for boolean parameters will initially be used by the Rust
  null block driver [1].

  Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/ [1]

* Rebased the patch on top of '[PATCH v2] rust: module_param: return
  value by copy from `value`' [1], which required removing the
  dereference from '*module_parameters::test_bool_parameter.value()' in
  samples/rust/rust_minimal.rs.
