I was thinking that perhaps this call was in a certain critical performance path of the O(1) scheduler.
Turned out it wasn't - see further Nick Piggin's followups to this same thread.
My latest bitmap/cpumask patch moves this out of line, for ia64. The other arch's that use this large find_next_bit() code might want to move it out too.
