Subject: [PATCH v12 4/4] Make use of pg_popcount() in more places.
Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2026 12:40:08 -0600

This replaces some loops over word-length popcount functions with
calls to pg_popcount().  Since pg_popcount() uses a function
pointer for inputs with sizes >= a Bitmapset word, this produces a
small regression for the common one-word case in bms_num_members().
To deal with that, this commit adds an inlined fast-path for that
case.  This fast-path could arguably go in pg_popcount() itself
(with an appropriate alignment check), but that is left for future
study.
