Is anyone going to fix those? If we don't, someone will certainly again
submit patches to add more of these bitfields, after all, some very
prominent parts of the kernel still use them. Only recently for instance
mac80211 merged like 30 of these.... and drivers/net, include etc..
certainly has a lot of these.
There is a lot of crap in the kernel. Just look at all the grotty SCSI
or char drivers, for example. The first task is to avoid adding more
crap :)
