Hello,

This patch series optimizes the fns() function by avoiding repeated
calls to __ffs(). Additionally, tests for fns() have been added in
lib/test_bitops.c.

Changes in v4:
- Correct get_random_long() -> get_random_bytes() in the commit
  message.

Changes in v3:
- Move the benchmark test for fns() to lib/test_bitops.c.
- Exclude the overhead of random number generation from the benchmark
  result.
- Change the output to print only a total gross instead of each n in
  the benchmark result.
- Update the commit message in the second patch.

Changes in v2:
- Add benchmark test for fns() in lib/find_bit_benchmark.c.
- Change the loop in fns() by counting down from n to 0.
- Add find_bit benchmark result for find_nth_bit in commit message.
