This says _what_ you do. But we can see that in the patch itself.
You need to say _why_ you are doing this.
There's no need for this change at all. Again, as I have said before,
we write code for developers to read first, the compiler second. By
making these types of changes you are making it harder to
read/understand by a developer, and providing absolutely no benifit to
the compiler at all.
So it's actually making the code worse!
not good at all.
Please reconsider this type of change, as I keep asking you to.
Okay. In this case I thought it wouldn't make it worse since the
function is low on local variables anyway? Clearly I was wrong, so I
won't count this case as an exception in future.
Thanking you,
Nishka
