Thanks Alexis. Your patch has the same effect as the one I cracked up
myself after some head scratching. It is more readable than mine,
however my solution avoids the iteration and the multiple checks for
A4L_CHAN_GLOBAL_CHANDESC and can be a little more efficient, but i think
compiler optimizations should make it a non noticeable difference.
