The overflow detection for the start offset of the next record is not
really necessary, we can just stop iterating if the current record ends at
or after out end offset. This removes the need to test if the current
record end offset is (u64)-1 and to check if adding 1 to the current
end offset results in 0.
By testing only if the current record ends at or after the end offset, we
also don't need anymore to test the new start offset at the head of the
while loop.
This makes both the source code and assembly code simpler, more efficient
and shorter (reducing the object text size).
Also remove the pointless initialization to NULL of the state variable, as
we don't use it before the first assignment to it. This may help avoid
some warnings with clang tools such as the one reported/fixed by commit
966de47ff0 ("btrfs: remove redundant initialization of variables in
log_new_ancestors").

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
