Merge two separately sent but vaguely related patches from Christoph Hellwig. One changes the kmem_cache_alloc_bulk() API to return bool, because it was already actiong as all-or-nothing, and that aspect was not documented. Existing callers are updated. The second patch simplifies the mempool_alloc_bulk() API to stop skipping over non-NULL entries in the array, and removes a related parameter that said how many are non-NULL. A similar simplification of alloc_pages_bulk() is being discussed as well and should follow in near future.
