Think over again, IMO, we can add an variable for stating total count of
free nids in bitamp, if there is no free nid, just skipping scanning all
existed bitmap.
And if there is only few free nid scattered in bitmap, the cost will be
limited because we will skip scanning nm_i::free_nid_bitmap if
nm_i::free_nid_count is zero. Once we find one free nid, let's skip out.
Since there shouldn't be very heavy overhead for CPU during traveling
nm_i::nat_block_bitmap, I expect below change could be more simple for
maintaining and being with the same effect.
How do you think?
