Bartosz Golaszewski says: ==================== regmap: provide simple bitops and use them in a driver I noticed that oftentimes I use regmap_update_bits() for simple bit setting or clearing. In this case the fourth argument is superfluous as it's always 0 or equal to the mask argument. This series proposes to add simple bit operations for setting, clearing and testing specific bits with regmap. The second patch uses all three in a driver that got recently picked into the net-next tree. The patches obviously target different trees so - if you're ok with the change itself - I propose you pick the first one into your regmap tree for v5.8 and then I'll resend the second patch to add the first user for these macros for v5.9. v1 -> v2: - convert the new macros to static inline functions v2 -> v3: - drop unneeded ternary operator ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
