kernel.h: Documentation for roundup() vs round_up()
PATCH v3 1/1 kernel.h: Documentation for roundup() vs round_up()
Things like commit 3619dec5103d ("dh key: fix rounding up KDF output length") expose the lack of explicit documentation for roundup() vs round_up(). At least we can try to document it better if anyone goes looking.
