After looking closer at the potential users, I see less benefit of this change
than before. The other case in one of wireless driver can actually benefit from
separate size_add() calls and temporary variables which will be reused later in
the code. The similar approach even can be used for nl80211.c case. So for
now I abandon this until more users come. (Of course it might be that I'm missing
something and if somebody knows what, I would like to learn.)
