Please keep reverse XMAS-tree layout.

I should have written that in my first reply, but s == NULL means
the given line number couldn't be found in the list of lines. This is
a serious error and should be warned about. So maybe something like:

if (WARN_ON(!s))
	return;

But allocating a new empty line in that case is certainly wrong.

Thanks
