It saves loop, not just three lines :)

Right, but since (!sl_mask) check is cheap you are able to stop PR
generation at the moment when no valid SLs exist. Just look at the
patch (against recent PR code):

I mean those extra lines in the patch where the only differences are
formatting or cosmetic stuff like extra braces. If you have a reason to
make such changes just send it as separate patch.

No. It requires 2+ seconds to make sure that some braces are just
"extra" ones.

BTW the second is incorrect - should  be (1 << 31), those '()' were
needed.
