Re: [V9fs-developer] [Patch] Dead code in fs/9p/vfs_inode.c

[erik quanstrom]

saving ten bytes once is not a good reason to do much of anything
in an era of multi-megabyte embedded devices.

i think the argument against code written in speculation is that
it confuses what the code does right now, may never be used and
if used, may be used in a situation that masks a real error.
