I fixed it up a bit before applying it.  It turns out we already had a
function specific to block bitmaps, ext2fs_test_block_bitmap_range()
which provides this functionality.  So I added the optimized version
of the generic bitmap test_range() function, and used it to speed up
ext2fs_test_block_bitmap_range().   This got placed into the maint branch.

The changes to e2fsck's pass5 has been checked into the 'master'
branch of e2fsprogs.
