Subject: [PATCH 1/4] lib: make test_bitops compilable into the kernel image

The test is limited to be compiled as a module. There's no technical
reason for it. Now that the test bears performance benchmark, it would
be reasonable to allow running it at kernel load time, before userspace
starts, to reduce possible jitter.
