include/linux/bitops.h: set_mask_bits() to return old value
| > Also, set_mask_bits is used in fs quite a bit and we can possibly come up | > with a generic llsc based implementation (w/o the cmpxchg loop) | | May I also suggest changing the return value of set_mask_bits() to old. | | You can compute the new value given old, but you cannot compute the old | value given new, therefore old is the better return value. Also, no | current user seems to use the return value, so changing it is without | risk.
