a || (a && b) is actually just a fancier way to write a.

if a is true, the result is true,
if a is false, the result will be a && b, however, as a is already false,
it's false.

in go9p.patch, the suggested change is actually from a || b to a || (b &&
a),
this is slightly different. But it's still just a fancier way to write a.
