Inlining the patches to email would be greatly appreciated. Here are

Use two underscores to follow naming conventions.

Redundant cast.

Redundant cast.

Rather large function to be an inline.

Add a separate declaration for each variable. The above is hard to read.

Using goto out and dropping the else branch would make this more readable.

Missing space before parenthesis.

Please drop the extra braces.

Would probably make more sense to check if
(next == &pnode->pnode_slavepnode && traversal == PNODE_UP) and use goto out to
get rid of the else branch.

Use switch statement here.

Redundant cast.

Extra braces.

This looks dangerous. Why this must not fail and in other places you 
return -ENOMEM?

Redundant cast.

The expression (1<<bit) would make more sense here.

No need for the above. Kernel headers are not supposed to be included by
userspace.

Static inline functions are preferred over #define.

Can pnode really be NULL here? Looking at the callers in this patch, it can't.
Please remember that you should do NULL checks like this only when it makes
sense from API point of view to call the function with NULL.
