E.g. 3 bits in a clump? Hmm...

Why would we need that? I mean some real use case?

You may, of course, but see above and my comments below.

I would rather go with two prototypes to get()/set() a clump in the bitmap
in a way when it's aligned and BITS_PER_LONG % clump_size == 0.

unsigned long bitmap_get_clump(unsigned long *src, unsigned int start, unsigned int clump_size)
{
unsigned int index = BIT_WORD(start);
unsigned int offset = start % BITS_PER_LONG;


/* These just for spelling the restrictions */
WARN_ON(BITS_PER_LONG % clump_size);
WARN_ON(offset % clump_size);

/* TODO: take care of clump_size == 64 */
return (bitmap[index] >> offset) & GENMASK(clump_size - 1, 0);
}

Something similar with set with additional parameter unsigned long value
which has MSB cleared till we reach [clump_size - 1 : 0].
