Please refrain from doing unrelated changes to the purpose of the patch,
that just gets in the way of reviewing, i.e. what for removing those
braces? The patch should be just:

@@ -24,6 +24,7 @@ static unsigned long *get_bitmap(const char *str, int nbits)
 	bm = bitmap_alloc(nbits);
 
 	if (map && bm) {
-		bitmap_zero(bm, nbits);
 
 		for (i = 0; i < map->nr; i++) {

Because the point of this patch is just to remove this unneeded
bitmap_zero().
