 *     bitmap_getdata - return pointer to raw bit data (for I/O).
 *     bitmap_alloc   - locate a cleared bit, set it, and return its index.
 *     bitmap_mark    - set a clear bit by its index.
 *     bitmap_unmark  - clear a set bit by its index.
 *     bitmap_isset   - return whether a particular bit is set or not.
