Dear Lijun Pan,
In message 1402085108-11841-1-git-send-email-Lijun.Pan@freescale.com you wrote:
lower_32_bits and upper_32_bits are very useful while programming.
"is very useful" is not enough reason to add any code.
Where are the actual users of these functions? We will not add dead code.
+/**
- upper_32_bits - return bits 32-63 of a number
- @n: the number we're accessing
Hm... This comment is definitely wrong for the Power Architecture, where bit 0 is always the most significan bit, so upper_32_bits would reutn bits 0...31.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
