The IPI code of x86 needs to evaluate whether the target cpumask is equal
to the cpu_online_mask or equal except for the calling CPU.

To replace the current implementation which requires the usage of a
temporary cpumask, which might involve allocations, add a new function
which compares a cpumask to the result of two other cpumasks which are
or'ed together before comparison.

This allows to make the required decision in one go and the calling code
then can check for the calling CPU being set in the target mask with
cpumask_test_cpu().

It's not clear what's so horrible about emitting a function call to handle
a run-time sized bitmap.  Moreover, gcc also emits a function call for a
compile-time-constant-but-huge nbits, so the comment isn't even accurate.

Most other bitmap API, including the OOL version __bitmap_shift_right,
take unsigned nbits.  This was accidentally left out from 2fbad29917c98.

<content type='text'>
In the _zero, _fill and _copy functions, the small_const_nbits branch is
redundant.  If nbits is small and const, gcc knows full well that
BITS_TO_LONGS(nbits) is 1, so len is also a compile-time constant
(sizeof(long)), and calling memset or memcpy with a length argument of
sizeof(long) makes gcc generate the expected code anyway:

#include &lt;string.h&gt;
void a(unsigned long *x) { memset(x, 0, 8); }
void b(unsigned long *x) { memset(x, 0xff, 8); }
void c(unsigned long *x, const unsigned long *y) { memcpy(x, y, 8); }

turns into

<title>linux/bitmap.h: handle constant zero-size bitmaps correctly</title>

<content type='text'>
The static inlines in bitmap.h do not handle a compile-time constant
nbits==0 correctly (they dereference the passed src or dst pointers,
despite only 0 words being valid to access).  I had the 0-day buildbot
chew on a patch [1] that would cause build failures for such cases without
complaining, suggesting that we don't have any such users currently, at
least for the 70 .config/arch combinations that was built.  Should any
turn up, make sure they use the out-of-line versions, which do handle
nbits==0 correctly.

This is of course not the most efficient, but it's much less churn than
teaching all the static inlines an "if (zero_const_nbits())", and since we
don't have any current instances, this doesn't affect existing code at
all.

A lot of code become ugly because of open coding allocations for bitmaps.

Introduce three helpers to allow users be more clear of intention
and keep their code neat.

Note, due to multiple circular dependencies we may not provide
the helpers as inliners. For now we keep them exported and, perhaps,
at some point in the future we will sort out header inclusion and
inheritance.

<title>bitmap: fix memset optimization on big-endian systems</title>

Commit 2a98dc028f91 ("include/linux/bitmap.h: turn bitmap_set and
bitmap_clear into memset when possible") introduced an optimization to
bitmap_{set,clear}() which uses memset() when the start and length are
constants aligned to a byte.

This is wrong on big-endian systems; our bitmaps are arrays of unsigned
long, so bit n is not at byte n / 8 in memory.  This was caught by the
Btrfs selftests, but the bitmap selftests also fail when run on a
big-endian machine.

We can still use memset if the start and length are aligned to an
unsigned long, so do that on big-endian.  The same problem applies to
the memcmp in bitmap_equal(), so fix it there, too.

<title>lib: optimize cpumask_next_and()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0ade34c37012ea5c516d9aa4d19a56e9f40a55ed</id>
<content type='text'>
We've measured that we spend ~0.6% of sys cpu time in cpumask_next_and().
It's essentially a joined iteration in search for a non-zero bit, which is
currently implemented as a lookup join (find a nonzero bit on the lhs,
lookup the rhs to see if it's set there).

Implement a direct join (find a nonzero bit on the incrementally built
join).  Also add generic bitmap benchmarks in the new `test_find_bit`
module for new function (see `find_next_and_bit` in [2] and [3] below).

For cpumask_next_and, direct benchmarking shows that it's 1.17x to 14x
faster with a geometric mean of 2.1 on 32 CPUs [1].  No impact on memory
usage.  Note that on Arm, the new pure-C implementation still outperforms
the old one that uses a mix of C and asm (`find_next_bit`) [3].

[1] Approximate benchmark code:

```
  unsigned long src1p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern1};
  unsigned long src2p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern2};
  for (/*a bunch of repetitions*/) {
    for (int n = -1; n &lt;= nr_cpu_ids; ++n) {
      asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src1p)); // prevent any optimization
      asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src2p));
      unsigned long result = cpumask_next_and(n, src1p, src2p);
      asm volatile("" : "+rm"(result));
    }
  }
```

Results:
pattern1    pattern2     time_before/time_after

Behaviour of bitmap_fill() differs from bitmap_zero() in a way how bits
behind bitmap are handed.  bitmap_zero() clears entire bitmap by unsigned
long boundary, while bitmap_fill() mimics bitmap_set().

Here we change bitmap_fill() behaviour to be consistent with bitmap_zero()
and add a note to documentation.

The change might reveal some bugs in the code where unused bits are
handled differently and in such cases bitmap_set() has to be used.
