Here and elsewhere we try to keep unused stuff off the stack.  Are you
suggesting that we're being overly cautious, or do you just dislike the
way it looks?

The extra braces hurt readability. Please drop them or make them proper functions instead. And yes, I think you're hiding potential stack usage problems here. Small unused stuff on the stack don't matter and large ones should probably be kmalloc() anyway. Pekka
