Subject: Re: [PATCH] x86: generic versions of find_first_(zero_)bit, convert i386
x86: generic versions of find_first_(zero_)bit, convert i386
Generic versions of __find_first_bit and __find_first_zero_bit
are introduced as simplified versions of __find_next_bit and
__find_next_zero_bit. Their compilation and use are guarded by
a new config variable GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT.
The generic versions of find_first_bit and find_first_zero_bit
are implemented in terms of the newly introduced __find_first_bit
and __find_first_zero_bit.
This patch does not remove the i386-specific implementation,
but it does switch i386 to use the generic functions by setting
GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT=y for X86_32.

Keeping the old version alive for the moment is fine with me. Here
is a replacement patch that does exactly that. Runs on i386 with
this patch and also with GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT=n.
I'll finish the patches for X86_64 and the constant-size bitmap
optimizations after work.
Greetings,
Alexander
