That would be nice.

Yup.  My x86_64 compiler just ignores the "inline".  When I use
__always_inline, find_bit.o's text goes from 776 bytes to 863. 
Hopefully we get something in return for that bloat!


Also, if _find_next_bit() benefits from this then _find_next_bit_le()
will presumably also benefit.
