Now as we have bitmap_weight_eq(), switch bitmap_full() and
bitmap_empty() to using it.

What's the speed difference? Have you benchmarked this?

bitmap_weight_eq() should be faster than find_first_bit(), but the
difference is few cycles, so I didn't bother measuring it.

New version looks just better.

Since this is supposed to be an optimization, I would go all the way and
replace this with the trivial implementation instead:

bool bitmap_empty(long *bits, size_t nbits)
{
	for (; nbits >= BITS_PER_LONG; ++bits, nbits -= BITS_PER_LONG)
		if (*bits)
			return false;

	if (nbits && *bits & BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK(nbits))
		return false;

	return true;
}

This is what current implementations basically do, based on find_first_bit().

I think that for long bitmaps the most time consuming operation is moving
data to L1, and for short bitmaps the difference between approaches is
barely measurable.

But hweght_long on each iteration can't be more effective than the current
version. So, I'll drop this patch for v2 and keep things unchanged.

Actually do bitmap_full/empty() calls make any sense at all?
The result is stale since bitmaps are designed to do locked operations.
If you have a lock covering the bitmap then you should be using
something that uses non-locked accesses.
Rightly or wrongly that isn't the bitmap api.

Are you talking about __{set,clear}_bit()?
