Hello List,
I am writing a linux kernel module, and I want to allocates the memory
in a way so I can define each individual bit, like bitfield structure
in userspace.
Please tell me the way to do the same.
Thanks and regards,
Shard Gupta

If you want to set every bit to zero, you could use calloc(); otherwise,
I think you'll need to use a bitmask and "<<", ">>" (bit shift left,
right). You could also probably do a bitwise '&' and '|'.
