Sorry to make you uncomfortable... Thanks for advice.

Actually find_prev_*_bit call _find_prev_bit which is a common helper function
like _find_next_bit.
As you know this function is required to support __BIGEDIAN's little
endian search.
find_prev_bit actually wrapper of _find_prev_bit which have a feature
the find_last_bit.
That makes the semantics difference between find_last_bit and find_prev_bit.
-- specify where you find from and
In loop, find_last_bit couldn't sustain original size as sentinel
return value
(we should change the size argument for next searching
But it means whenever we call, "NOT SET or NOT CLEAR"'s sentinel
return value is changed per call).
Because we should have _find_prev_bit,
I think it's the matter to choose which is better to usein
find_prev_bit (find_last_bit? or _find_prev_bit?)
sustaining find_prev_bit feature (give size as sentinel return, from
where I start).
if my understanding is correct.
In my view, I prefer to use _find_prev_bit like find_next_bit for
integrated format.
But In some of the benchmarking, find_last_bit is better than _find_prev_bit,
here what I tested (look similar but sometimes have some difference).

Is it better to write find_prev_bit using find_last_bit?
I question again.
Thanks for your great advice, But please forgive my fault and lackness.
HTH.
