pcpu_find_block_fit() guarantees that a fit is found within PCPU_BITMAP_BLOCK_BITS. Iteration is used to determine the first fit as it compares against the block's contig_hint. This can lead to incorrectly scanning past the end of the bitmap. The behavior was okay given the check after for bit_off >= end and the correctness of the hints from pcpu_find_block_fit(). This patch fixes this by bounding the end offset by the number of bits in a chunk.
