Hmm... Naming here is not in the bitops namespace.
I would expect BITS rather than BITMAP for these two.

So, we have at least the following options:
 - split to a separate header, like bitmap_macros.h
 - s/BITMAP/BITS/ and either define BITMAP_* as respective BITS_* or rename it
   everywhere in bitmap.*
 - your variant
 - ...???...
