The patch titled Subject: lib/bitmap.c: simplify bitmap_ord_to_pos has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is lib-bitmap-simplify-bitmap_ord_to_pos.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/lib-bitmap-simplify-bitmap_ord_to_pos.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/lib-bitmap-simplify-bitmap_ord_to_pos.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: lib/bitmap.c: simplify bitmap_ord_to_pos Make the return value and the ord and nbits parameters of bitmap_ord_to_pos unsigned. Also, simplify the implementation and as a side effect make the result fully defined, returning nbits for ord >= weight, in analogy with what find_{first,next}_bit does. This is a better sentinel than the former ("unofficial") 0. No current users are affected by this change.
