First, it produces compiler warning:

Python/codecs.c: In function ‘PyCodec_SurrogatePassErrors’:
Python/codecs.c:794: warning: pointer targets in passing argument 1 of ‘strlen’ differ in signedness
/usr/include/string.h:397: note: expected ‘const char *’ but argument is of type ‘unsigned char *’

Second, it slowdown the code to 10%:

$ ./python-orig -m timeit -s 'b=b"\xed\xa0\xa0"+b"x"*10000'  'b.decode("utf-8", "surrogatepass")'
100000 loops, best of 3: 12.2 usec per loop
$ ./python -m timeit -s 'b=b"\xed\xa0\xa0"+b"x"*10000'  'b.decode("utf-8", "surrogatepass")'
100000 loops, best of 3: 13.3 usec per loop


I suggest to use the followed code instead:

         if (PyBytes_GET_SIZE(object) - start >= 3 &&
