  I see no problem with the code after a first quick reading.

  As a matter of style, I might have added a "const" here or there.
  However, this is less important for simple small functions.

  The fact that this function is small makes it actually quite
  readable.

  A type such as "mps_addr_t" might hide an asterisk. So, "mps *"
  might be more readable than "mps_addr_t" because it uses the
  language to express the addressness instead of less clear names
  and allows the adding of "const"s, as in "mps const * const" 
  where appropriate. OTOH, sometimes one wants to hide such details,
  but then one also would avoid inserting "addr_t" into a name.

  The functions lacks documentation such as can be written using
  Doxygen or something. So it's intended semantics are unknown and
  we cannot review that aspect.
