lib: bitmap: change bitmap_shift_right to take unsigned parameters
I've previously changed the nbits parameter of most bitmap_* functions to unsigned; now it is bitmap_shift_{left,right}'s turn. This alone saves some .text, but while at it I found that there were a few other things one could do. The end result of these seven patches is $ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/bitmap.o.{old,new} add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/2 up/down: 0/-328 (-328) function old new delta __bitmap_shift_right 384 226 -158 __bitmap_shift_left 306 136 -170 and less importantly also a smaller stack footprint $ stack-o-meter.pl master bitmap file function old new delta lib/bitmap.o __bitmap_shift_right 24 8 -16 lib/bitmap.o __bitmap_shift_left 24 0 -24 For each pair of 0 <= shift <= nbits <= 256 I've tested the end result with a few randomly filled src buffers (including garbage beyond nbits), in each case verifying that the shift {left,right}-most bits of dst are zero and the remaining nbits-shift bits correspond to src, so I'm fairly confident I didn't screw up. That hasn't stopped me from being wrong before, though. This patch (of 7): gcc can generate slightly better code for stuff like "nbits % BITS_PER_LONG" when it knows nbits is not negative. Since negative size bitmaps or shift amounts don't make sense, change these parameters of bitmap_shift_right to unsigned. The expressions involving "lim - 1" are still ok, since if lim is 0 the loop is never executed. Also use "shift" and "nbits" consistently for the parameter names.
