Avoid divides in BITS_TO_LONGS

Browse Source 
BITS_PER_LONG is a signed value (32 or 64)

DIV_ROUND_UP(nr, BITS_PER_LONG) performs signed arithmetic if "nr" is signed too.

Converting BITS_TO_LONGS(nr) to DIV_ROUND_UP(nr, BITS_PER_BYTE *
sizeof(long)) makes sure compiler can perform a right shift, even if "nr"
is a signed value, instead of an expensive integer divide.

Applying this patch saves 141 bytes on x86 when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y
and speedup bitmap operations.
