It looks good to me. These two code snippets are exactly identical,
so removing the redundant code is reasonable.
As can be seen from the contextual comments, this is not a
performance-critical path either,
so we don’t need to worry about the performance overhead caused by function
calls.
I also checked the changes made in commit dd299df, which essentially does
the same thing for the function _bt_getrootheight.
