This by itself looks more like a bugfix than preparation for later
steps. The only reason why it is not a bugfix is because there is
nothing in this function that makes res a non-zero value and reach
this if statement at this step. We would have been caught by an
"if (res) { ... rerere(); goto leave; }" or
"if (allow < 0) { res = allow; goto leave; }"
that appear before this part of the code.
So while it is not wrong per-se, I think this should be part of an
actual change that makes it possible for the control flow to reach
here with non-zero res.
