Hi Yury,
thanks for your patch!

I will need to take a closer look at the whole code in ilsel_enable() to understand what's
happening here. If Geert's explanation is correct, it sounds more like you're fixing a bug
and saying you're optimizing the function in the patch subject would sound more like an
euphemism.
Also, I think we should add a Fixes tag if possible in case your patch fixes an actual bug.
I will have a closer look over the weekend.
Adrian
