In this rule and the next one, if you remove the final ; from the b = tmp
line and from the swap line, and put it into context code afterwards, them
the generated code looks better on cases like fs/xfs/xfs_inode.c in the
function xfs_lock_two_inodes where two successive swap calls are
generated.

There are also some cases such as drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/phy.c in
the function ath5k_hw_get_median_noise_floor where the swap code makes up
a whole if branch.  In this cases it would be good to remove the {}.
