Now that we have an iterator-based alternative for a very common case

Hi Tariq, Valentin,

I rebased your iterators patches on top of cpumask_local_spread() rework.
(Rebase is not plain simple.) The result is on bitmap-for-next branch,
and in -next too.


I had a look, LGTM.

This patch adds a note on alternative approach in cpumask_local_spread()
comment, as we discussed before.

I'm going to send pull request with cpumask_local_spread() rework by the
end of this week. If you want, I can include your patches in the request.
Otherwise please consider appending this patch to your series.


It would probably make sense to send it all together, especially since you
went through the trouble of rebasing the patches :)

Thanks!


Same here.
