I agree with Ben, this is a useless change as the end result is still
the same (the side effect is that i is increased with four). You are
just hiding that from smatch and once smatch is fixed it will warn again
about the same thing.
I recommend fixing this properly so that the macro doesn't have any side
effects.
Uh. Sorry, also I thought I had pushed a fix to add this to the
ignored macro list, but I forgot. I've pushed it now.
The whole point of the macro is to have an affect. This is not a general
purpose macro..it's very specific to this local logic.
I don't think folks should be so dogmatic about these sorts of things.
Thanks,
Ben
