lib/bitmap.c make bitmap_print_bitmask_to_buf parseable
The documentation of such function is not on a proper ReST format,
as reported by Sphinx:

So, the produced output at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/core-api/kernel-api.html?#c.bitmap_print_bitmask_to_buf
is broken. Fix it by adding spaces and marking the literal blocks.
