There's some lack of consistency between the name and implementation and
the description.
It seems that it would be simpler to actually make it get_length() and
return the length of the allocation or nentries if the latter is smaller.
Then in gen_pool_free() there will be no need to recalculate nentries
again.
There is an error in the documentation. I'll explain below.
Argh, I do not know why I came out with that.

Yes, your comment is correct. I've modified the function accordingly and
it is simpler.

I will post it in the next revision.
