If bitmap_find_free_region() is called with order=0, We can reduce for-loops to find 1 free bit. First, It scans bitmap array by the increment of long type, then find 1 free bit within 1 long type value.
In 32 bits system and 1024 bits size, in the worst case, We need 1024 for-loops to find 1 free bit. But, If This is applied, it takes 64 for-loops. Instead, if free bit is in the first index of the bitmaps, It will be needed additional 1 for-loop. But from second index, It will be speed up significantly.
