Hi all

I am using "test_bit(),set_bit(),clear_bit() etc" API functions provided by
the Linux kernel. I want to know that if anybody is used it and have full
faith in its operation then please let me know. Driver in the while loop is
calling these API's hence i want to make sure that its operation will remain
stable.

I need your comments in this regard 

Thank you 
Misbah
