Subject: [PATCH 2/3] misc: use bitmap/bitops functions for dynamic minor number allocation
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2009 22:30:16 -0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1257813017-28598-2-git-send-email-cascardo@holoscopio.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1257813017-28598-1-git-send-email-cascardo@holoscopio.com>

Use DECLARE_BITMAP, find_first_zero_bit, set_bit and clear_bit instead
of rewriting code to do it with the minor number dynamic allocation
bitmap.

We need to invert the bit position to keep the code behaviour of using
the last minor numbers first, since we don't have a find_last_zero_bit.
