[PATCH] generic pool allocator: allow all chunks to be allocated.

From: Duck
Date: Wed Apr 16 2008 - 08:33:35 EST


From: Bruce Schmid <duck@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>


gen_pool_alloc() doesn't allocate the last chunk in a pool.
This patch fixes that problem by correcting the calculation
of the number of the last bit in the bitmap.
