Hi Köry,

I'm no expert on etnhl bitmaps. But the above doesn't seem correct to me.
Given that sizeof(u32) == 4:

* The allocation is for nbits * 4 bytes
* The copy is for its for nbits bytes
* I believe that bitmap contains space for the value followed by a mask.
  So it seems to me the size of bitmap, in words, is
  DIV_ROUND_UP(nbits, 32) * 2
  And in bytes: DIV_ROUND_UP(nbits, 32) * 16
  But perhaps only half is needed if only the value part of tmp is used.

If I'm on the right track here I'd suggest helpers might be in order.
