The for loop checks whether cur_section is NULL on every iteration, but
we know it can never be NULL as there is another check towards the
bottom of the loop body. Remove this unnecessary check.

Also change i to start at 1, so that we don't need an extra +1 when we
use it.

'i' is only referenced once inside the loop to check boundary,

the loop is actually iterating over cur_section, so i would make it
clear in the loop statement, e.g.:
Remove the break condition and the cur_section assignment at the end of
the loop and use the loop statement to do it for you

for (; cur_section; cur_section = next_section)

And for i you can just increment it inline:
if (++i == ...)

Good suggestions! I've sent a v2 with these changes.
