Matthew Wilcox e4afd2e556 lib/find_bit.c: micro-optimise find_next_*_bit
This saves 32 bytes on my x86-64 build, mostly due to alignment
considerations and sharing more code between find_next_bit and
find_next_zero_bit, but it does save a couple of instructions.

There's really two parts to this commit:
 - First, the first half of the test: (!nbits || start >= nbits) is
   trivially a subset of the second half, since nbits and start are both
   unsigned
 - Second, while looking at the disassembly, I noticed that GCC was
   predicting the branch taken. Since this is a failure case, it's
   clearly the less likely of the two branches, so add an unlikely() to
   override GCC's heuristics.
