Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] proc/fd: Remove unnecessary variable initialisations in seq_show()

I suggest to improve also this change description.

* Should the mentioned identifiers refer to variables?

* Will another imperative wording be preferred?

* I propose to extend the patch a bit more.
  How do you think about to convert the initialisation for the variable “ret”
  also into a later assignment?

Regards,
Markus
