m68knommu can't build ext4, udf, and ocfs2 due to the lack of
find_next_bit_le().

This implements find_next_bit_le() on m68knommu by duplicating the
generic find_next_bit_le() in lib/find_next_bit.c.

Wouldn't the m68k specific implementation of this in
arch/m68k/include/asm/bitops_mm.h be better?

find_next_bit_le() in bitops_mm.h has a bug
(Please see https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/3/43) and it is not fixed
in mainline yet. So I decided to use generic one for the safety.

Yeah, I still have to create a for-2.6.40 branch and add it there.
