Thanks for your contribution. Acked-by: Geoff Levand <geoff@infradead.org>

No concurrent access is possible when a bitmap is local to a function. So prefer the non-atomic functions to save a few cycles. - replace a 'for' loop by an equivalent non-atomic 'bitmap_fill()' call - use '__set_bit()' While at it, clear the 'bitmask' bitmap only when needed.
