I'm not saying "you should never use while loops", but more of "people
use for loops when accessing arrays of information". I cannot see any
cases of the latter in i915. Perhaps I'm looking at some old code ?

The point I'm trying to make here is that people are unlikely to make
comments about such trivial nitpicks (bikeshedding), but new
contributions should stick with the existing approach, rather than
going for "I like XXX" :)

Take any and all of my with a grain of salt, just in case.

Regards,
Emil
