3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidef...@de.ibm.com>
commit 3b0040a47ad63f7147e9e7d2febb61a3b564bb90 upstream.
The find_next_bit_left function is broken if used with an offset which
is not a multiple of 64. The shift to mask the bits of a 64-bit word
not to search is in the wrong direction, the result can be either a
bit found smaller than the offset or failure to find a set bit.
