Thanks for the review, In fact, I'm using umin() rather than plain min()
on purpose: opt->optlen is a signed int and sizeof(int) is size_t, so
min() trips the signedness check unless the compiler can prove optlen >=
0.
I don't think min() is correct here, it would be min_t() or umin(),
I would say.
