My argument is even simpler - its not worth the effort in the first place.

I'm sure you could use the same time to shave 150 bytes and a few clocks
of a path that actually gets executed.

Arnd - can you send me a diff that keeps the existing horrible macro
version, the existing __put_user usage and just fixes c_line ? It's
worked for 15 years, its not worth the time being fancy with it.

Alan
