Subject: [PATCH] improve lib/test_find_bit

As suggested in review comments:
* printk: align numbers using whitespaces instead of tabs;
* return error value from init() to avoid calling rmmod if testing again;
* use ktime_get instead of get_cycles as some arches don't support it;
* rename test_find_bit.c to find_bit_benchmark.c.

The output in dmesg (on QEMU arm64):
