That code looks dubious on 32bit architectures.

I don't have 02b3f84d9080 in any of my source trees.
But that patch may itself be very dubious.

Since the hardware requires explicit bits be set, relying
on the bitmap functions seems pointless and possibly wrong.
Clearly they cause additional problems because they use long[]
and here the code needs u32[].
