From my point of view you degrade readability by doing that.
section_nr_to_pfn(mem->start_section_nr + section_nr);
Three times the word 'section_nr' in one line, is that worth it ? Gives me headache.
Codying style says the following, which makes full sense in my opinion:
LOCAL variable names should be short, and to the point. If you have some random integer loop counter, it should probably be called ``i``. Calling it ``loop_counter`` is non-productive, if there is no chance of it being mis-understood.
What about just naming it 'nr' if we want to use something else than 'i' ?
