There are a few cases where code is harder than needed to read. Improve those by: - dropping unnecessary castings (see note below) - use PTR_ALING() to be more explicit on what's going on there - use proper definitions instead of hard coded values Note, dropping castings will allow to perform an additional check that type is not changed from void * to something else, e.g. u64, which may very well break the bitmap APIs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
