See the comments near the top of lib/bitmap.c, ending with
the following lines, for documentation of the bitmap layout.

 * The byte ordering of bitmaps is more natural on little
 * endian architectures.  See the big-endian headers
 * include/asm-ppc64/bitops.h and include/asm-s390/bitops.h
 * for the best explanations of this ordering.
