So now every call to wake_up_bit(word, bit) now is converted to:

__wake_up_bit(bit_waitqueue(word, bit), word, bit);

which is in turn converted to (looking into your next patch):

{
wait_queue_head_t *wq = bit_waitqueue(word, bit);
struct wait_bit_key key = __WAIT_BIT_KEY_INITIALIZER(word, bit);
if (waitqueue_active(wq))
__wake_up(wq, TASK_NORMAL, 1, &key);
}

which is in turn converted to (looking into your other patch):

{
wait_queue_head_t *wq = bit_waitqueue(word, bit);
struct wait_bit_key key = __WAIT_BIT_KEY_INITIALIZER(word, bit);
if (waitqueue_active(wq))
{
unsigned long flags;
spin_lock_irqsave(&qw->lock, flags);
__wake_up_common(wq, TASK_NORMAL, 1, 0, &key);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&wq->lock, flags);
}
}

And you know what? This is likely not the end yet! It's possible
spin_lock_irqXXX, __wake_up_common, waitqueue_active or bit_waitqueue
are inlines - I didn't check.
