Subject: [PATCH 6/9] random: simplify accounting logic
Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 03:08:21 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131113080821.GT16018@ringworld.MIT.EDU> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1384329436.git.price@mit.edu>

This logic is exactly equivalent to the old logic, but it should
be easier to see what it's doing.

The equivalence depends on one fact from outside this function:
when 'r->limit' is false, 'reserved' is zero.  (Well, two facts;
the other is that 'reserved' is never negative.)
