That looks ... somewhat ugly. I think you either should add a proper
comment here (or somebody will fix it back in the future when reading
the code), ... or would it also work to type-cast the result of
ARRAY_SIZE to "int"? Something like this:
for (i = 0; i < (int)ARRAY_SIZE(args_tmp) && \
i < (int)ARRAY_SIZE(cap.args); i++)
