SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] lib/bitmap: Make parameter len unsigned

Hi Paul,

Can you please tell more about your motivation for fixing
__bitmap_set? The following __bitmap_clear has the same problem,
and bitmap_parse{,_user}, and bitmap_print_to_pagebuf, and
bitmap_parselist...

Is there a particular problem that is resolved after fixing
__bitmap_set()?

I'm OK if this is a single patch, but for a cleanup work it would
be more logical to clean everything in a single patch/series...

Thanks,
Yury
