Sure, the change I was asked for is trivial, but I didn't get the reason
why it is needed. Neither there is a reply to my follow-up comment [0].
Sorry, I am pretty much new on LKML and could miss things that are
supposed to be clear from the start, but my impression is that when
someone says "it is better", he/she should explain why it is better or
at least what is wrong with the patch he/she wants to be changed.

However, I don't want to enter some arguing loop, so if you think I
should change the code as per Joe's comment, just confirm it and I'll do it.

Thanks,
Ivo
