[PATCH 0/8] lib: cleanup bitmap-related headers

From: Yury Norov
Date: Fri Jul 01 2022 - 08:54:42 EST


This series unifies declarations of bitmap-related functions and aligns
return types with values that actually returned. Also, it moves one-liner
wrappers around cpumask functions into headers, so that compiler has a
chance to optimize better.

With this series, GCC 11.2 for ARM64 with kernel v5.19-rc4:
add/remove: 15/7 grow/shrink: 461/164 up/down: 14844/-4580 (10264)

This +10K didn't surprize me because modern compilers are more agressive
in inlining, loop unrolling, and other techniques that increase size of
the image.

Yury Norov (8):
arm: align find_bit defs with generic kernel
lib/bitmap: change return values to bool where appropriate
lib/bitmap: change type of bitmap_weight to unsigned int
cpumask: change return types to bool where appropriate
lib/cpumask: change return types to unsigned
lib/cpumask: move one-line wrappers around find_bit to the header
mm: split include/linux/gfp.h
lib/cpumask: move some one-line wrappers to header file
