[PATCH v2 0/2] x86/topology: add bitmap_weight_from() and use it in topo_unit_count()

[Yury Norov (NVIDIA)]

Currently the function open-codes the missing bitmap_weight_from() with
a for-loop, which is known to be less effective. Add the helper and
switch topo_unit_count() to using it.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251214235437.244125-1-yury.norov@xxxxxxxxx/
v2:
 - rename 'nbits' to 'end' (Ingo);
 - leverage bitmap_weight() in inline implementation;
 - drop outline implementation;
 - don't handle 'start >= end' case explititly, leave it to user.
