[ Upstream commit d4ea1d504d2701ba04412f98dc00d45a104c52ab ] If we ever meet a hardware that uses weird register bits and padding, we may end up in off-by-one error since x/8 + y/8 might not be equal to (x + y)/8 in some cases. bits pad x/8+y/8 (x+y)/8 4..7 0..3 0 0 // x + y from 4 up to 7 4..7 4..7 0 1 // x + y from 8 up to 11 4..7 8..11 1 1 // x + y from 12 up to 15 8..15 0..7 1 1 // x + y from 8 up to 15 8..15 8..15 2 2 // x + y from 16 up to 23 Fix this by using (x+y)/8.

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.
