49  * @cmp_func: pointer to comparison function
50  * @swap_func: pointer to swap function or NULL

52  * This function does a heapsort on the given array. You may provide a
53  * swap_func function optimized to your element type.
54  *
55  * Sorting time is O(n log n) both on average and worst-case. While
56  * qsort is about 20% faster on average, it suffers from exploitable
57  * O(n*n) worst-case behavior and extra memory requirements that make
58  * it less suitable for kernel use.
