[PATCH] bitmap: fix find helper documentation
Posted by Yury Norov 3 days, 2 hours ago
find_nth_and_bit() and find_nth_and_andnot_bit() may return a value
greater than @size when the requested bit does not exist, matching
find_nth_bit(). Document that correctly. All current users are safe
against the '>=' vs '==' conditions. 

Also fix the for_each_clear_bitrange_from() parameter descriptions so
they describe clear ranges instead of set ranges.
