If/when you post a v2 of this, please:
- Update the subject to say *why* this change is desirable.
- Follow the capitalization convention (use "git log --oneline" to
discover it).
- Add "()" after function names in the text (no need in the call
tree because that's obviously all functions).
- Mention the user-visible problem this fixes, e.g., do you see an
oops because of a NULL pointer dereference?
