Linus pointed out the benefits of C99 some years ago, especially variable declarations in loops [1]. At that time, we were not ready for the migration due to old compilers. Recently, Jakob Koschel reported a bug in list_for_each_entry(), which leaks the invalid pointer out of the loop [2]. In the discussion, we agreed that the time had come. Now that GCC 5.1 is the minimum compiler version, there is nothing to prevent us from going to -std=gnu99, or even straight to -std=gnu11. Discussions for a better list iterator implementation are ongoing, but this patch set must land first.
