Similarly to bitmap functions, find_next_*_bit() users will benefit if we'll handle a case of bitmaps that fit into a single word. In the very best case, the compiler may replace a function call with a single ffs or ffz instruction.

Seems like a new helper can be introduced (BITS or BITMAP namespace depending on the decision): #define _OFFSET_SIZE_MASK(o,s) \ (BITMAP_FIRST_WORD_MASK(o) & BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK(s)) val = *addr & BITMAP_OFFSET_SIZE_MASK(offset, size); And so on below.
+ return val ? __ffs(val) : size; + }
