Some of the parameters to __wait_on_bit() and __wait_on_bit_lock() are
redundant, as the wait_bit_queue parameter holds the flags word and the
bit number. This patch updates __wait_on_bit() and __wait_on_bit_lock()
to fetch that information from the wait_bit_queue passed to them and so
reduce the number of parameters so that -mregparm may be more effective.

Incremental atop the complete out-of-lining of the contention cases and
the fastcall and wait_on_bit_lock()/test_and_set_bit() fixes.

Successfully tested on x86-64.
