+/*
+  Set/clear all bits above a bit.
+
+  SYNOPSIS
+    bitmap_set_above()
+    map                  RETURN The bitmap to change.
+    from_byte                   The bitmap buffer byte offset to start with.
+    use_bit                     The bit value (1/0) to use for all upper bits.
+
+  NOTE
+    You can only set/clear full bytes.
+    The function is meant for the situation that you copy a smaller bitmap
+    to a bigger bitmap. Bitmap lengths are always multiple of eigth (the
+    size of a byte). Using 'from_byte' saves multiplication and division
+    by eight during parameter passing.
+
+  RETURN
