I started wondering when the second condition fires and by inspecting code not
visible in this patch it seems that it cannot. The loop addresses elements in
the "pull_constant_loc[]" in order and never beyond current index "i".

This is the code not visible. I pasted here for clarity.

            for (unsigned int j = 0; j < stage_prog_data->nr_pull_params; j++) {
               if (stage_prog_data->pull_param[j] == stage_prog_data->param[i]) {
                  pull_constant_loc[i] = j;
                  break;
               }
            }
            if (pull_constant_loc[i] == -1) {
               int pull_index = stage_prog_data->nr_pull_params++;
               stage_prog_data->pull_param[pull_index] = stage_prog_data->param[i];
               pull_constant_loc[i] = pull_index;
            }
         }
      }
