The comment comes later in the function and it says "FIXME:
args->delay_frames can be NULL here".  "args->delay_frames" is
different from "args->delay_frames[0]".  Obviously
args->delay_frames can't actually be NULL there since we
dereference it here so the comment is wrong.

If the correct response to the FIXME were just to add a NULL
check then the original author probably would have done that.
