for_each_set_bit()?

Yeah, seems I must have overslept that helper, will send an updated version.


OTOH maybe we should do

	bitmap = get_bitmap_events_by_type(type); // new, return keybit or swbit

new helper function? or static function in gpio-keys? who allocates/frees the bitmap memory? or this is static data? Maybe I don't get the idea :) .

	if (!bitmap_subset(bits, bitmap, n_events)) {
		error = -EINVAL;
		goto out;
	}

... and leave the rest of the loop as is?


Not sure about that. Unless I miss something, what we want is:

1. make sure that what user has written is within the range of the event type. I hope bitmap_parselist already does it for us.

2. Make sure that for every bit in bits set based on what user has provided, there is a matching gpio in this particular gpio-keys device.

3. Make sure that every gpio user wants disabled is actually allowed to be disabled.

I don't see how 2 is achieved with ^^^ code.

So, shall I send a new version of the patch with for_each_set_bit() used, or you'll fix the $subject problem with whatever magic you think is needed?

Thanks,
Ivo
