There might be multiple copies of the flags, so remove all of them. Also pull the setup into a helper function to avoid duplicating the logic. On ChibiOS boards, this fixes SITL (which had issues with position quantization) and affects the SBF GPS driver (which was probably fine before but does change slightly).
Sim on hardware now flies smoothly instead of jittering about all over the place. SBF requires a handful more bytes but I don't think this meaningfully affects the function based on a brief read-through; the important lat/lon casts were already done manually.
Many thanks to tridge for working with me to debug this. Assuming it should be backported so that SBF works as written even if the change in behavior is negligible.
