Not necessarily for a function header.

Nah, I don't consider that an improvement.

I prefer separating the error and success paths, for example:

	if (err)
		return true;

	return !count;

but the current code is also ok.

Yes, but that's not an issue. Clearly separating the success and errors
paths as I suggested above would make that more obvious however.

I'll fix that up before applying.
