I'm fine with the patch up to here. I understand the constant first
compare, but it doesn't make sense here. Either use:

if (set_op_prio(arg) < 0) ...
or
if (set_op_prio(arg) == -1)...


The reason the -1 == doesn't make sense is because:

if (set_op_proi(arg) = -1)

would fail too.

And it is much easier to read.
