Yeah, adding this to kernel.h just for a single usage is overkill. I would be expecting that a non-underflow decrement logic is something that would be used on other places at the Kernel, but identifying this pattern would require some time. Maybe Kernel janitors could write some coccinelle script to replace similar patterns like that into some macro in the future. Thanks, Mauro
