This is seen in font-lock-defaults for buffers in c-mode. What is it?

It's a remnant of a font-lock "feature" that was added and
then (thankfully) removed. Its effect was that whenever line N..M needed
to be re-fontified, font-lock would refontify from N -
font-lock-lines-before.

Thanks, then I guess it should be replaced with something else in c-mode
too? Or is it just not needed any more?
