Being silly like that is actually important to make a sweeping patch
like that boring and trivial to show that it is correct.  Anything
that is not a rule based transformation is much more likely to hide
a bug.  So for the push down of the type change I think it was the right
way to go.

That said I am happy to add a clean up patch that makes the obvious
cleanups and simplifications to smack_lsm.c.
