In advance of changing the behavior of path_found(), take all of the
intermediate data values and group them into a single struct. This
simplifies the method prototype as well as the initialization. Future
changes can be made directly to the struct and method without changing
the callers with this approach.

Note that the clear_path_found_data() method is currently empty, as
there is nothing to free. However, this will change in the future, so
place the method and its callers for now.

I can't parse the second half of the final sentence.  What was meant here?

I was trying to point out how this method looks a bit silly:

+static void clear_path_found_data(struct path_found_data *data)
+{
+       return;
+}

It will be filled in with a meaningful implementation later on, but
I wanted to establish its callers here. I'll try to find a better
way to communicate this.

Thanks,
