Subject: Re: [PATCH 3/5] lib/bitmap: add test for bitmap_{from,to}_arr64

Ever since this test is in the tree, several of my boot tests show
lots of messages such as

test_bitmap: bitmap_to_arr64(nbits == 1): tail is not safely cleared: 0xa5a5a5a500000001 (must be 0x0000000000000001)
test_bitmap: bitmap_to_arr64(nbits == 2): tail is not safely cleared: 0xa5a5a5a500000001 (must be 0x0000000000000003)
test_bitmap: bitmap_to_arr64(nbits == 3): tail is not safely cleared: 0xa5a5a5a500000001 (must be 0x0000000000000007)
...
test_bitmap: bitmap_to_arr64(nbits == 927): tail is not safely cleared: 0xa5a5a5a500000000 (must be 0x000000007fffffff)
test_bitmap: bitmap_to_arr64(nbits == 928): tail is not safely cleared: 0xa5a5a5a580000000 (must be 0x00000000ffffffff)

but then:

test_bitmap: all 6550 tests passed

The message suggests an error, given that it is displayed with pr_err,
but the summary suggests otherwise.

Is the message just noise, or is there a problem ?

Thanks,
Guenter
