Maybe... can update it in v8

I put it on a different line as a justfication for the loop variable
initialization described in the comment above.

Right... that's some leftover from the last refactoring!

I think I went back/forth a couple of times in using pointer or the
extended version, which both have pros and cons.
I personally prefer the pointers as you suggest but I've got the
impression in the past that since everybody cleared "basic C trainings"
it's not so difficult to read the code above too.

Agree... let's try to switch once again in v8 and see ;)

Since I'm adding a new field at the beginning of the struct, which is
used at enqueue/dequeue time, this is to ensure that all the
callbacks used in these paths are grouped together and don't fall
across a cache line... but yes, that's supposed to be a
micro-optimization which I can skip in this patch.
