Hi!

There is a potential name space collision with bitmap API vs. MD bitmaps
(whatever it is).

Since I'm about to submit some extension to bitmap API, I would like as
a preparatory patch to rename all bitmap_* in drivers/md to md_bitmap_*
to avoid real conflict with my patch series [1], i.e. bitmap_free().

Opinions?
Better proposals?
