[PATCH] decnet: remove macro-local declarations

[Julia Lawall]

Move the variable declarations from the for_nexthops macro to the
surrounding context, so that it is clear where these variables are
declared.  This also makes it possible to remove the endfor_nexthops macro.

This change adds new arguments to the macro for_nexthops.  They are ordered
such that a pointer to the referenced object comes first, the index in the
list comes next, and the list itself comes last, roughly in analogy with
the list_for_each macros.

This patch takes care of a single file, where the macros are defined
locally.  If the basic transformation looks OK, I will change the other
files that either likewise define their own macros or use the macros in
net/mpls/internal.h.  The potentially affected files are:

net/decnet/dn_fib.c
net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c
net/mpls/af_mpls.c

This looks fine to me.

Please resubmit this when net-next opens back up, which should be
shortly after -rc1.

Thanks.

OK, I'll do the others then too.

Would it be preferable to remove the macro entirely and inline the for 
loop header?

Could you show me an example of how this would look exactly?

If you do can you please parenthesize the macro arguments?

#define for_nexthops(nh, nhsel, fi) \
 	for (nhsel = 0, nh = (fi)->fib_nh; nhsel < (fi)->fib_nhs; (nh)++, (nhsel)++)
instead of
	for(nhsel = 0, nh = (fi)->fib_nh; nhsel < (fi)->fib_nhs; nh++, nhsel++)

And perhaps a renaming might be better

One possible solution is below.  I moved the initialization of the nh
pointer inside the loop to reduce the size of the loop header.  One could
also inline fi->fib_nh[nhsel] where it occurs, but it seemed that that
would make quite long expressions.

I like this more since it is much more obvious what is done.

more over we can remove a macro with only 2 users.

It's not to bad because it turns out to be pretty concise.  But I don't
agree about the 2 users.  There are 2 users for this specific definition,
but the same concept is used in 37 places, and having an inlined solution
in one place and a macro based solution in another place is not going to
be helpful.  So the decision should be made in terms of all 37 users.
