This adds generic functions for calculating Exponentially Weighted Moving Averages (EWMA). This implementation makes use of a structure which keeps the EWMA parameters and a scaled up internal representation to reduce rounding errors. The original idea for this implementation came from the rt2x00 driver (rt2x00link.c). I would like to use it in several places in the mac80211 and ath5k code and I hope it can be useful in many other places in the kernel code.

|
|
* These are generic functions for calculating Exponentially Weighted Moving
|
|
* Averages (EWMA). We keep a structure with the EWMA parameters and a scaled
|
|
* up internal representation of the average value to prevent rounding errors.
|
|
* The factor for scaling up and the exponential weight (or decay rate) have to
|
|
* be specified thru the init fuction. The structure should not be accessed
|
|
* directly but only thru the helper functions.
