Waiting... :-(

The only comment is from Linus who really doesn't like the idea
that min(signed_var, 4u) should be the same as min(signed_var, 4).
I think he is ok with min(unsigned_var, 4) though.

The min_t(u16,...) I quoted from the console buffer code is
a real bug that was identified by someone else last week.

Really min_t() is just an accident waiting to happen.
