How do you think about a wording variant like the following?

  Thus assign the first element of the data array to a local variable
  so that it can be used as an array index together with the data structure
  member “ci_slot” in a safer way.


Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” to the commit message?
Are you going to take this possibility into account for any more patches?

Regards,
Markus
