The issue here is "sideffects". Does b have to be evaluated at all?
There is no difference between
int a, b;
if (a && b)
and
if ((!!a) & (!!b))
.
But there would be difference between
int a, b;
if (a && b++)
and
if ((!!a) & (!!(b++)))
But:
1) && and || behave same way w.r.t. side effects
2) in the patch we are talking about b has no important side effects
Best regards,
Pavel
