RE: [PATCH net 1/3] qed: Release CQ resource under lock on failure

The bitmap functions are being used by various bitmaps one of which is the cid.
The cid code must allocate two consecutive cids. So here the lock is over two calls
to the bit allocating call.

I am planning to recode the cid to use one bit instead of two, this is further
down the list.

Thanks for the suggestion,
Ram

Hi Dave,
The patches should be taken as is.
The improvement suggestion about the (widely used) mechanism is still under consideration
and will surely not be part of 4.10.

Shall I resend V1?

Thanks,
Ram
