This patch inlines bitmap_weight() call. Thus, removing the BUG_ON,
and 'longs to bits -> bits to longs' conversion by directly calling
hweight_long().

It is better to say the patch "open codes" the bitmap_weight() call.

Why is that OK to do?

I expect all the code size improvements are from doing this?

BUG_ON was necessary here to check that bitmap_weight will return a correct value,
i.e. the computed weight will fit the int type: 
static __always_inline int bitmap_weight(const unsigned long *src, unsigned int nbits);

BUG_ON was added in the memweight v2

We don't need this check, since we removed the bitmap_weight call and
control the computation directly with size_t everywhere.

We could add BUG_ON(bytes >= SIZE_MAX / BITS_PER_BYTE);
at the very beginning of the function to check that the array is not
very big (>2000PiB), but it seems excessive.

Yes, but I thought it's good to show that the total size is not
increasing because of the manual "inlining".
