Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] bitmap: Add bitmap_alloc(), bitmap_zalloc() and bitmap_free()
Date:   Mon, 18 Jun 2018 16:10:01 +0300
Message-Id: <20180618131003.88110-4-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>
In-Reply-To: <20180618131003.88110-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>
References: <20180618131003.88110-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

A lot of code become ugly because of open coding allocations for bitmaps.

Introduce three helpers to allow users be more clear of intention
and keep their code neat.
