 *
 * INTRODUCTION
 *
 *   The textsearch infrastructure provides text searching facitilies for
 *   both linear and non-linear data. Individual search algorithms are
 *   implemented in modules and chosen by the user.
 *
 * ARCHITECTURE

 *     |                |       Core API           ^       ^          ^
 *     |                |      +---------------+  (2)     (4)        (8)
 *     |             (1)|----->| prepare()     |---+       |          |

 *     |             (7)|----->| destroy()     |----------------------+
 *     +----------------+      +---------------+
 *  
 *   (1) User configures a search by calling _prepare() specifying the
 *       search parameters such as the pattern and algorithm name.
 *   (2) Core requests the algorithm to allocate and initialize a search
 *       configuration according to the specified parameters.
 *   (3) User starts the search(es) by calling _find() or _next() to
 *       fetch subsequent occurrences. A state variable is provided
 *       to the algorihtm to store persistant variables.
 *   (4) Core eventually resets the search offset and forwards the find()
 *       request to the algorithm.
 *   (5) Algorithm calls get_next_block() provided by the user continously
 *       to fetch the data to be searched in block by block.
 *   (6) Algorithm invokes finish() after the last call to get_next_block
 *       to clean up any leftovers from get_next_block. (Optional)
 *   (7) User destroys the configuration by calling _destroy().
 *   (8) Core notifies the algorithm to destroy algorithm specific
 *       allocations. (Optional)
 *
 * USAGE
 *
 *   Before a search can be performed, a configuration must be created
 *   by calling textsearch_prepare() specyfing the searching algorithm and
 *   the pattern to look for. The returned configuration may then be used
 *   for an arbitary amount of times and even in parallel as long as a
 *   separate struct ts_state variable is provided to every instance.
 *
 *   The actual search is performed by either calling textsearch_find_-
 *   continuous() for linear data or by providing an own get_next_block()
 *   implementation and calling textsearch_find(). Both functions return
 *   the position of the first occurrence of the patern or UINT_MAX if
 *   no match was found. Subsequent occurences can be found by calling
 *   textsearch_next() regardless of the linearity of the data.
 *
 *   Once you're done using a configuration it must be given back via
 *   textsearch_destroy.
 *
 * EXAMPLE
 *
 *   int pos;
 *   struct ts_config *conf;
 *   struct ts_state state;
 *   const char *pattern = "chicken";
 *   const char *example = "We dance the funky chicken";
 *
 *   conf = textsearch_prepare("kmp", pattern, strlen(pattern),
 *                             GFP_KERNEL, TS_AUTOLOAD);
 *   if (IS_ERR(conf)) {
 *       err = PTR_ERR(conf);
 *       goto errout;
 *   }
 *
 *   pos = textsearch_find_continuous(conf, &state, example, strlen(example));
 *   if (pos != UINT_MAX)
 *       panic("Oh my god, dancing chickens at %d\n", pos);
 *
 *   textsearch_destroy(conf);
