I wanted this change since previously it was a little confusing. A
quick glance might raise questions "why only do this conditionally?"
and then when looking more carefully "oh, we actually do this
unconditionally before every new iteration".

It is as you say a no-op change.
It should arguably be done in a separate patch but it is so small I
just took the lazy path and put it in this patch instead of a separate
patch.

Thanks for the review.
