okay, will correct commit message in v5.

v5 will mention these changes will bring extra code improvement as side
effects during achieving main purpose.

1) i have checked that will not cause problem, may have code improvement

2) this change (2 lines) is simpler than below(3 lines)
   -	struct range *r1, *r2 = data;
   +    struct range *r1;
   +    const struct range *r2 = data;

3) r1 and r2 are used for range_contains() whose prototype was changed
to takes 2 const pointers recently.

4) make r1 & r2 keep the same type as original.
