Hey Yury,

Given that PFCP will be resent in the next window...

Your "boys" tree is in fact self-contained -- those are mostly
optimizations and cleanups, and for the new API -- bitmap_{read,write}()
-- it has internal users (after "bitmap: make bitmap_{get,set}_value8()
use bitmap_{read,write}()"). IOW, I don't see a reason for not merging
it into your main for-next tree (this week :p).
What do you think?
