Subject: mm/mempolicy.c:offset_il_node() document and clarify
X-Git-Url: http://git.efficios.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fee83b3aba4b7ddb0cb1497a04ddebcaa43f236e;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

mm/mempolicy.c:offset_il_node() document and clarify

This code was pretty obscure and was relying upon obscure side-effects
of next_node(-1, ...) and was relying upon NUMA_NO_NODE being equal to
-1.

Clean that all up and document the function's intent.
