But, I think it's not quite a kernel-wide change just add the
correspondent function to find_last_bit.
So, if we add this feature, maybe some users will use it in near future.
As my fault, I sent this patch without cover in patch [0/8] to explain why
So, I will send this patch again to take some review...

Sorry to make a noise again and Thanks to advice.
