md: bitmap: improve bitmap maintenance code.



The code for checking which bits in the bitmap can be cleared
has 2 problems:
 1/ it repeatedly takes and drops a spinlock, where it would make
    more sense to just hold on to it most of the time.
 2/ it doesn't make use of some opportunities to skip large sections
    of the bitmap

This patch fixes those.  It will only affect CPU consumption, not
correctness.
