Yes, exactly.

We could just leave gs->driver NULL instead of looking up "default", and
then use NULL to signal to the calling code that defaults should be
used. But NULL is interpreted by grep_source_load_driver as "we did not
look up the driver yet", so the common case of "no driver" would mean we
accidentally do the lookup multiple times.  The diff_filespec code uses
the same convention to solve the same problem.

Speaking of which, there was some notion in my mind that a "grep_source"
and a "diff_filespec" were very similar objects, and that we could
possibly unify the implementations. I decided against that route with
this series, as it would have involved pretty heavy refactoring of the
diff code to prevent a fairly small amount of code duplication.
