[ Upstream commit 7275b097851a5e2e0dd4da039c7e96b59ac5314e ]
The static inlines in bitmap.h do not handle a compile-time constant nbits==0 correctly (they dereference the passed src or dst pointers, despite only 0 words being valid to access). I had the 0-day buildbot chew on a patch [1] that would cause build failures for such cases without complaining, suggesting that we don't have any such users currently, at least for the 70 .config/arch combinations that was built. Should any turn up, make sure they use the out-of-line versions, which do handle nbits==0 correctly.
This is of course not the most efficient, but it's much less churn than teaching all the static inlines an "if (zero_const_nbits())", and since we don't have any current instances, this doesn't affect existing code at all.
