50  * @cmp_func: pointer to comparison function

53  * This function does a heapsort on the given array. You may provide a

56  * Sorting time is O(n log n) both on average and worst-case. While
57  * qsort is about 20% faster on average, it suffers from exploitable
58  * O(n*n) worst-case behavior and extra memory requirements that make
59  * it less suitable for kernel use.
