The size of bitmaps which is accessed by bitops must be a multiple of
the sizeof(long).  So it would be better to use BITS_TO_LONGS() to
calculate the bitmap size although it always be a multiple of the
sizeof(long)

Same objection as patch #2, fixing a non-bug.

I'm not applying this, sorry.

I thought it wasn't bug, but I was confused with bits and bytes, now
I realize that bitmap_bits is not always a multiple of the BITS_PER_LONG.
Because the value is set as below:

        bitmap_bits = srmmu_nocache_size >> SRMMU_NOCACHE_BITMAP_SHIFT;

srmmu_nocache_size is decided proportionally by the amount of system RAM
and it is rounded to a multiple of PAGE_SIZE.  SRMMU_NOCACHE_BITMAP_SHIFT
is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT - 4).  So it can only be said that bitmap_bits
is a multiple of 16.

So this patch (and patch 1/3) actually fix a bug.  I'll update the commit
messages and resend only the patches that fixing bug.
