This is a cleanup series separated out from the MGLRU-FG series [1]. As
that series is getting too long in following updates, seperate out the
clean up part for easier review and merge.

No feature change is intended, except one bugfix. It mostly replaces
the open-coded bit operations scattered throughout the MGLRU code with
new helpers, with proper kdocs, sanity debug checks, and hardens a few
MGLRU functions.

A subtle generation counter leak is also found during the refactoring
and the fix is included.

Also collected review feedbacks on the cleanup part from the posted
series, thanks to Barry and Baoquan.
