I guess, make sense from what perspective?  Looks like the assembly
ends up being the same, so it would be down to "readability" which is
subjective - I personally don't see a major advantage to one way or
the other.  It does look like Kalle already picked up this patch, so
I'm guessing that if folks feel your suggestion is superior, then it
would need to be a follow on.
