Sorry, I don't know about this fact Thanks..

I'm not test btrfs' free space cache directly, But I used find_bit_benchmark.c.

here is the result of find_bit_benchmark.

              Start testing find_bit() with random-filled bitmap
[  +0.001874] find_next_bit:                      816326 ns, 163323 iterations
[  +0.000822] find_next_zero_bit:             808977 ns, 164357 iterations
[  +0.000571] find_last_bit:                       561444 ns, 163323 iterations
[  +0.000619] find_last_zero_bit:              609533 ns, 164357 iterations
[  +0.002043] find_first_bit:                       2011390 ns,  16204
iterations
[  +0.000003] find_next_and_bit:                  59 ns,      0 iterations
[  +0.000001]
              Start testing find_bit() with sparse bitmap
[  +0.000068] find_next_bit:                      34573 ns,    653 iterations
[  +0.001691] find_next_zero_bit:            1663556 ns, 327027 iterations
[  +0.000010] find_last_bit:                       7864 ns,    653 iterations
[  +0.001235] find_last_zero_bit:             1216449 ns, 327027 iterations
[  +0.000664] find_first_bit:                 653148 ns,    653 iterations
[  +0.000002] find_next_and_bit:                  44 ns,      0 iterations

as this result, the find_last_zero_bit is a little fast, and logically,
because find_each_clear_bit is iterate till the specified index (i) times,
But find_last_zero_bit in that case call one time
(find_each_clear_bit call i times but find_last_zero_bit call only one time)

So, i think it has a slight improvement.

Thanks.
Levi.
