[PATCH 6/7] lib: bitmap: Eliminate branch in __bitmap_shift_left

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Fri Nov 28 2014 - 11:02:59 EST


We can shift the bits from lower and upper into place before
assembling dst[k + off]; moving the shift of lower into the branch
where we already know that rem is non-zero allows us to remove a
conditional.
