Except that nr_pages is being used as the loop counter.
Probably best to turn this into a normal (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++)
loop, and then we can do as you say. But this isn't a particularly
interesting high-performance loop.
I agree. I shall turn this into a normal (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++) loop and then make the relevant changes.
