Ok, that makes sense. For completeness, I'd add a "do" and "while(0)" to the
braces, but that's not important here, it's ok as-is.
BTW: for your v5, I don't think you kept the previous ack's that myself and
Olivier had given for a number of your patches. It's strongly recommended
that you put any previously-given acks in any new revisions after the
signoff line, so as to make it easier to track for maintainers, and to save
us having to re-ack the same patches multiple times.
Thanks,
