Ming-Hung Tsai 011450c2f9 dm cache: optimize dirty bit checking with find_next_bit when resizing
commit f484697e619a83ecc370443a34746379ad99d204 upstream.

When shrinking the fast device, dm-cache iteratively searches for a
dirty bit among the cache blocks to be dropped, which is less efficient.
Use find_next_bit instead, as it is twice as fast as the iterative
approach with test_bit.

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.
