These long lines were split later in "[PATCH 1/7] udf: fix coding style"
(but I will fix it in next version of this patch).

Yep. This looks better.

I will look for them. I've seen many weird calculations in udf code
and I think it's a good idea to move some of them into helpers.

So every struct buffer_head * in bitmap will be indexed by a pair of:
idx >> ilog2(PAGE_SIZE / sizeof(struct buffer_head *))
idx & ((PAGE_SIZE / sizeof(struct buffer_head *)) - 1)
Am I right? Or did I misunderstand something?
I don't know how big nr_groups could be, but it might still need vmalloc
when array of pages won't fit on one page...

Thanks! :)
