memweight() is the function that counts the total number of bits set
in memory area. The memory area doesn't need to be aligned to
long-word boundary unlike bitmap_weight().

Ugh, this is ugly and mostly unnecessary. Just use "const unsigned char
*bitmap".

This can be:
count = ((unsigned long)bitmap) % sizeof(long);
while (count--) {
w += hweight(*bitmap);
bitmap++;
bytes--;
}

I find it highly unlikely that someone would have such a large bitmap
(256 MB or more on 32-bit). Also the condition as you wrote it can just
overflow so it won't have the desired effect. Just do
BUG_ON(longs >= ULONG_MAX / BITS_PER_LONG);
and remove the loop completely. If someone comes with such a huge bitmap,
the code can be modified easily (after really closely inspecting whether
such a huge bitmap is really well justified).

The count should be the size of unaligned area and it can be greater than
bytes. So
count = min(bytes,
sizeof(long) - ((unsigned long)bitmap) % sizeof(long));

The bits argument of bitmap_weight() is int type. So this should be
BUG_ON(longs >= INT_MAX / BITS_PER_LONG);

size_t memweight(const void *ptr, size_t bytes)
{
size_t w = 0;
size_t longs;
const unsigned char *bitmap = ptr;

bytes--, bitmap++)
w += hweight8(*bitmap);
longs = bytes / sizeof(long);

OK, I didn't check and thought it's size_t.

bitmap_weight copes with a bitmask that isn't a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG
in size already. So I think this can be done as:
unsigned long memweight(const void *s, size_t n)
{
const unsigned char *ptr = s;
unsigned long r = 0;
while (n > 0 && (unsigned long)ptr % sizeof(long)) {
r += hweight8(*ptr);
n--;
ptr++;
}
BUG_ON(n >= INT_MAX / 8)
return r + bitmap_weight((unsigned long *)ptr, n * 8);
}

I just use the same type as the bytes argument without mature
consideration. If unsigned long is better than size_t, I'll
change the return type.

This works perfectly on little-endian machines. But it doesn't work
