sbitmap: randomize initial alloc_hint values
In order to get good cache behavior from a sbitmap, we want each CPU to stick to its own cacheline(s) as much as possible. This might happen naturally as the bitmap gets filled up and the alloc_hint values spread out, but we really want this behavior from the start. blk-mq apparently intended to do this, but the code to do this was never wired up. Get rid of the dead code and make it part of the sbitmap library. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
