Small nit: please use a proper C inline function instead of CPP, as for example
the PowerPC zero_bytemask() function is.
Indeed, I normally would do that. But, I was trying to match the
existing style; there are nine definitions that are specified as macros
(including the one in asm-generic), and only one (powerpc 64-bit LE)
that was specified as an inline.
I did put together a v3 of the patch series that included all your
excellent suggestions, including the Reported-by, Tested-by, and
Reviewed-by tags, but then found out v2 was already pulled into
Linus's tree, so I guess that ship has sailed; oh well.
My inclination would be not to churn the tree with a patch to
convert those new zero_bytemask() macros to inlines, but I'm happy
to do so if you think it would be better.
