Maybe in theory, but as NUM_USER_ASIDS is a power of two (256),
and therefore both start and nbits are aigned to BITMAP_MEM_ALIGNMENT,
bitmap_clear() will call memset().

The only difference between the two are that bitmap_zero() doesn't
involve the compiler working out that it can call memset() (which
will be worked out at compile time not run time).

So, I doubt that this change makes any difference what so ever to the
generated code, and thus this change is just for change sake. In
other words, it's just useless churn.

Thanks anyway.
