It also allows you to easily add/remove calls without having to deal with the last special case return my_last_fun_call(...). Anyway it's not a big deal, I think it's your call. -- Federico -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
