The patch sat on the list for a couple months, then I went ahead and 
committed it.

The changes to include/linux/bits.h are just code movement from kernel 
to uapi header (plus the uglification of BITS_PER_LONG and 
BITS_PER_LONG_LONG per uapi rules) so I think that's fine.

But I'll drop an email to them to ask them if they want MAINTAINERS to 
include the new file.

Yeah, uapi/linux/const.h is needed to use the macros in bits.h.  I 
didn't notice because KVM headers include it anyway and, on the 
include/linux/ side, include/linux/bits.h gets it via include/linux/const.h.
