Improve mb_free_blocks speed by clearing bits all at once instead of going one by one.
Rebuild buddy bitmap by going up only once per range instead of once per block.
For example, for 60G file commit callback time drops from 2.7s to 5ms.
This is especially good for non-preemptive kernels as there is no rescheduling during release.
