[PATCH] ARM: Fix find_next_zero_bit and related assembly

From: James Jones
Date: Thu Nov 11 2010 - 20:17:32 EST


The find_next_bit, find_first_bit, find_next_zero_bit
and find_first_zero_bit functions were not properly
clamping to the maxbit argument at the bit level. They
were instead only checking maxbit at the byte level.
To fix this, add a compare and a conditional move
instruction to the end of the common bit-within-the-
byte code used by all the functions and be sure not to
clobber the maxbit argument before it is used.
