And so I did in asm-ppc/bitops.h...

I don't compile everything, but I got warnings for the following files (I did
_not_ check the files by hand!):

drivers/char/n_tty.c
drivers/char/tty_ioctl.c
mm/page_io.c
mm/page_alloc.c
mm/swapfile.c
fs/ext2/balloc.c
fs/ext2/ialloc.c
fs/open.c
fs/super.c
fs/fcntl.c
include/linux/hfs_sysdep.h
net/ipv4/ip_input.c
arch/ppc/kernel/irq.c

What about ext2_*_bit()?

Greetings,

Geert
