I will move these definitions to metricgroup.c.

Kan also commented on this part. I've made some updates on bitmap related functions
and going to send that out in next version.
The goal of this flipping was to ensure to assign the highest indexed available counter first.
I did not find a find_last_and_bit() so used find_first_and_bit() and then this flipping.
