revert: small refactoring in the way backup value are handled

The current backup value may have two different values:

  1. Do not try to do backup
  2. Do backup if applicable

We are about to move to:

  1. Do not try to do backup
  2. Do backup if applicable
  3. Do backup in all cases

So we change the current values to make room for the new one.
