Would you mind terribly if I call that: invert_dir_mask() ?

And I might write a comment to go with those functions; they're too
clever by half. I'm sure I'll have forgotten how they work in a few
months time.

Very well done :-)

Should we write that like:

for_each_set_bit(bit, &mask, LOCK_USED) {
int excl = exclusive_bit(bit);
if (excl_mask & lock_flag(excl)) {
*bitp = bit;
*excl_bitp = excl;
return 0;
}
}
return -1;

Or something along those lines?
