In the kernel codebase we have functions that call bitmap_copy()
to convert bitmaps to and from fix-sized 32 or 64-bit arrays. It
works well for LE architectures when size of long is equal to the
size of fixed type.

If the system is BE and/or size of long is not equal to the size of
fixed type of the array, bitmap_copy() may produce wrong result either
because of endianness issue, or because of out-of-bound access.

To address this problem we already have bitmap_{from,to}_arr32().
In recent discussion it was spotted that we also need 64-bit
analogue of it:

This series takes care of it.

    appropriate
