[PATCH] lib/glob: clean up "bool abuse" in pointer arithmetic
From: Josh Law
Date: Sun Mar 01 2026 - 15:38:56 EST
From: Josh Law <objecting@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Replace the implicit 'bool' to 'int' conversion with an explicit
ternary operator. This makes the pointer arithmetic clearer and
avoids relying on boolean memory representation for logic flow.
