	This saves 32 bytes on my x86-64 build, mostly due to alignment considerations and sharing more code between find_next_bit and find_next_zero_bit, but it does save a couple of instructions. There's really two parts to this commit: - First, the first half of the test: (!nbits \|\| start >= nbits) is trivially a subset of the second half, since nbits and start are both unsigned - Second, while looking at the disassembly, I noticed that GCC was predicting the branch taken. Since this is a failure case, it's clearly the less likely of the two branches, so add an unlikely() to override GCC's heuristics.

2015-04-17	lib: rename lib/find_next_bit.c to lib/find_bit.c	Yury Norov
	This file contains implementation for all find_*_bit{,_le} So giving it more generic name looks reasonable.
