Why does it return unsigned int, not bool?

Uh?

BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK takes size not mask.

The whole implementation seems weird, this seems much better to me:

unsigned int all_bit_is_zero(const unsigned long *addr, unsigned size)
{
	for (; size > BITS_PER_LONG; size -= BITS_PER_LONG, ++addr)
		if (*addr)
			return 0;
	return !size || !(*addr & BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK(size));
}

But to be honest I’m not entirely sure this is worth the effort.
find_next_bit and find_next_zero_bit may do a little bit more work but
some architectures have specialised optimised versions which will be
lost if all_bit_is_zero and all_bit_is_one are introduced.
