[U-Boot] [PATCH] ARM: Define change_bit routine

[U-Boot] [PATCH] ARM: Define change_bit routine

[Amit Virdi]

From: Vipin KUMAR <vipin.kumar@st.com>

change_bit routine is left implementation dependent until now.
This routine is now defined for arm platforms in asm-arm/bitops.h

The Flexible Static memory controller driver, placed in
mtd/nand/fsmc_nand.c needs this routine. FSMC is a memory controller
peripheral from ST. The new driver implements the NAND interface part
of the peripheral.

NAK as this is submitted as an isolated patch to dead code.

Provide it as a member of a patchset where some later patch uses it -- 
and justify that you really need this function.

Amicalement,

Ok. change_bit routine is used by FSMC driver. I should be re-sending it 
as a part of FSMC driver patchset.
