Linux kernel source tree
Since current_order starts as MAX_ORDER-1 and is then only decremented, the second half of the loop condition seems superfluous. However, if order is 0, we may decrement current_order past 0, making it UINT_MAX. This is obviously too subtle ([1], [2]). Since we need to add some comment anyway, change the two variables to signed, making the counting-down for loop look more familiar, and apparently also making gcc generate slightly smaller code.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
