From 9536099a8ef185abc0497d5e995ce23bd587a96e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2016 06:28:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/sparse: drop __bitwise__ We dropped __CHECK_ENDIAN__ so __bitwise__ is now an implementation detail. People should use __bitwise everywhere. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
