Why do these exist?

ext2_test_bit() already handles bitnum > wordsize.

If mb_correct_addr_and_bit() is actually needed then some suitable comment
would help.

uninlining this will save about eighty squigabytes of text.

Please review all of ext4/jbd2 with a view to removig unnecessary and wrong
inlings.

Please use the do{}while(0) thing.  Or, better, proper C functions which
have typechecking (unless this will cause undefined-var compile errors,
which happens sometimes)

Did we just reinvent fls()?

Won't this explode with >= 32k blocksize?

Didn't we just add a helper in fs/buffer.c to do this?

Is there any reason why this had to be implemented as a macro?

Do all the GFP_NOFS's in this code really need to be GFP_NOFS?

hm.  Strange to see list_add_rcu() inside spinlock like this.

Strange to see rcu operations outside rcu_read_lock().

argh, no, yield() is basically unusable.  schedule_timeout(1) is preferable.

Please test this code whe there are lots of cpu-intensive tasks running.

Would be nice to ask Paul to review all the rcu usage in here.  It looks odd.

Strange-looking code.  I'd be interested in a description of the per-cou
design here.

This should be a mutex, shouldn't it?

Why was this one not GFP_NOFS?

This should be uninlined.


Gosh what a lot of code.  Is it faster?
