lib/bitmap.c and corresponding include/linux/bitmap.h are intended to hold functions related to operations on bitmaps, like bitmap_shift or bitmap_set. Historically, some string-related operations like bitmap_parse are also reside in lib/bitmap.c. Now that the subsystem evolves, string-related bitmap operations became a significant part of the file. Because they are quite different from the other bitmap functions by nature, it's worth to split them to a separate source/header files.

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.
