There were a few places in our code where the following pattern in 'if'

if ((foo = bar() < 0))

This patch adjusts the conditions to the expected format:

if ((foo = bar()) < 0)
   do something;


I'd forbid this short ugly notation.  Whoever is lazy to write:

 ...
 foo = bar();
 if (foo < 0)
 ...

is free to object until I send this e-mail.

This can be especially "fun" if you try to assign multiple RNG devices to a
domain and then try to hot-unplug any of them but the first. Anyhow I used the
regex below to find these, I haven't spent much time tuning in, so in case
you can come up with a better one that yields more results like these I'm all
ears :).

[[:alnum:]_]+ = [[:print:]]+[^)]) < 0))


I tried some other ones that would find '==' or '!=' or stuff split in
multiple lines and did not find any.
