The i should be signed to find out the end of the loop. Otherwise,
i >= 0 is always true and loop becomes infinite.

Can we just have an "int" here. So we don't shoot ourselves in the
foot again. I'm really no friend of these kind of micro
optimizations, it should have been int in the first place IMHO.

I have a patch in my output which also addresses this bug but you beat
me to the punch.  Declaring iterators as "u8 i;" is a canonical bug.

Muhammad, do you care to resubmit using int? Would be better indeed.

I'm sending a v2 with int.
