[Q-e-developers] potentially unnecessary initial computation of sc

Hello,

In the initialization part of the Davidson solver, cegterg, sc is computed
from evc with a zgemm and mp_sum.  evc should be coming into cegterg
already orthonormalized, so this should be unnecessary.  Are there cases
where this is not true?

Unless very little refinement is necessary, this won't affect performance
much.  It's shorter, though.  See:

Thanks,
Max
