The reason being that it would avoid this comment. Drop the return ret out of the block above and return ret unconditionally. I don't mind too much as I know this is moving later, but I only know that because of the earlier discussion ;) Few reviewers read the whole patch set before responding to the early patches - it's just too much like hard work. So if you can do things in an order that minimizes standard responses then that's great. Patch is fine though - could be solved by a comment in the intro that says the code in question will move in patch X. Jonathan > > return 0; > }
