Lukas Wunner 5307e2ad69 bitops: Introduce assign_bit()
A common idiom is to assign a value to a bit with:

    if (value)
        set_bit(nr, addr);
    else
        clear_bit(nr, addr);

Likewise common is the one-line expression variant:

    value ? set_bit(nr, addr) : clear_bit(nr, addr);

Commit 9a8ac3ae68 ("dm mpath: cleanup QUEUE_IF_NO_PATH bit
manipulation by introducing assign_bit()") introduced assign_bit()
to the md subsystem for brevity.

Make it available to others, specifically gpiolib and the upcoming
driver for Maxim MAX3191x industrial serializer chips.

As requested by Peter Zijlstra, change the argument order to reflect
traditional "dst = src" in C, hence "assign_bit(nr, addr, value)".

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
