Known issue. The ext4 developers added a #define (with a different name than in
the patch comment) in the commit below, but forgot to make sure
generic_find_next_le_bit() is actually available.

    ext4: Add ext4_find_next_bit()
    
    This function is used by the ext4 multi block allocator patches.
    
    Also add generic_find_next_le_bit
