[PATCH v2] xen-blkfront: Use the bitmap API when applicable
Posted by Christophe JAILLET 2 years, 4 months ago
Use 'bitmap_zalloc()' to simplify code, improve the semantic and avoid some
open-coded arithmetic in allocator arguments.

Also change the corresponding 'kfree()' into 'bitmap_free()' to keep
consistency.

Use 'bitmap_copy()' to avoid an explicit 'memcpy()'
