Looks trivially correct; thanks.
Looking at this patch makes me wonder why we have sha1_pos() and
sha1_entry_pos() helper functions, though. It feels as if the
former could be written in terms of the latter, but there may be
some performance and correctness downsides if we did so:
- rewriting sha1_entry_pos() in terms of sha1_pos() would add the
cost of callback to obtain the keys;
- sha1_entry_pos() picks the middle location conservatively to
avoid overshooting penalty, which sha1_pos() does not do;
- sha1_entry_pos() has been updated recently to tolerate
duplicates.
