Patch series "lib: rework bitmap_parselist and tests", v5. bitmap_parselist has been evolved from a pretty simple idea for long and now lacks for refactoring. It is not structured, has nested loops and a set of opaque-named variables. Things are more complicated because bitmap_parselist() is a part of user interface, and its behavior should not change. In this patchset - bitmap_parselist_user() made a wrapper on bitmap_parselist(); - bitmap_parselist() reworked (patch 2); - time measurement in test_bitmap_parselist switched to ktime_get (patch 3); - new tests introduced (patch 4), and - bitmap_parselist_user() testing enabled with the same testset as bitmap_parselist() (patch 5). This patch (of 5): Currently we parse user data byte after byte which leads to overcomplification of parsing algorithm. The only user of bitmap_parselist_user() is not performance-critical, and so we can duplicate user data to kernel buffer and simply call bitmap_parselist(). This rework lets us unify and simplify bitmap_parselist() and bitmap_parselist_user(), which is done in the following patch.

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.
