Hi all,

After merging the bitmap tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

lib/bitmap.c:351:6: error: conflicting types for '__bitmap_set'; have 'void(long unsigned int *, unsigned int, unsigned int)'
351 | void __bitmap_set(unsigned long *map, unsigned int start, unsigned int len)

Caused by commit

aaa4ab5ec044 ("lib/bitmap: Make length parameter `len` unsigned")

I have reverted that commit for today.
