Linus Torvalds d4013bc4d4 bitmap patches for v6.1-rc1
From Phil Auld:
 drivers/base: Fix unsigned comparison to -1 in CPUMAP_FILE_MAX_BYTES
 
 From me:
 cpumask: cleanup nr_cpu_ids vs nr_cpumask_bits mess
 
 This series cleans that mess and adds new config FORCE_NR_CPUS that
 allows to optimize cpumask subsystem if the number of CPUs is known
 at compile-time.
 
 From me:
 lib: optimize find_bit() functions
 
 Reworks find_bit() functions based on new FIND_{FIRST,NEXT}_BIT() macros.
 
 From me:
 lib/find: add find_nth_bit()
 
 Adds find_nth_bit(), which is ~70 times faster than bitcounting with
 for_each() loop:
         for_each_set_bit(bit, mask, size)
                 if (n-- == 0)
                         return bit;
 
 Also adds bitmap_weight_and() to let people replace this pattern:
 	tmp = bitmap_alloc(nbits);
 	bitmap_and(tmp, map1, map2, nbits);
 	weight = bitmap_weight(tmp, nbits);
 	bitmap_free(tmp);
 with a single bitmap_weight_and() call.
 
 From me:
 cpumask: repair cpumask_check()
 
 After switching cpumask to use nr_cpu_ids, cpumask_check() started
 generating many false-positive warnings. This series fixes it.
 
 From Valentin Schneider:
 bitmap,cpumask: Add for_each_cpu_andnot() and for_each_cpu_andnot()
 
 Extends the API with one more function and applies it in sched/core.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
