OK, I see. I think we need the comment about it.

So we cannot replace find_next_zero_area by bitmap_find_next_zero_area
and current -mmotm has the bug introduced by this patch in iommu-helper
and I also introduced the bug in bitmap_find_next_zero_area if
align_mask != 0 in
bitmap-introduce-bitmap_set-bitmap_clear-bitmap_find_next_zero_area-fix.patch
