Yes, linux/bitops.h are to get back.

I moved size checkers out of '_find_next_bit' to let user call it from his code
if he knows for sure that size/offset pair is valid. This may help save a couple
of clocks. I think, I'll walk over the code to find how many such places we have.
If not too much / not in critical paths, checks may be moved into the function.

Or maybe leave as is and place some comment for future?...
