Maybe the name should be tmp instead, but I think that the variable
should be just one here.

You're trying to outsmart the compiler in order to save space? Any  compiler 
from the last decade will take notice of the scope in which  variables are used 
and will reuse stack (or register) space if the  value they hold is no longer 
needed/used. I'm with John here, clarity  in the naming of variables is much 
more important.

Well, if the single "tmp" approach is not good, the current approach
that uses reg_init even for the led_polarity is not good either...

Cheers,
