yes that makes sense but please do not mix bugfix and API
change in one (unless the API change is the bugfix). E.g.
2/3 of the change is "noise"

uint32_t cur;
memcpy(&cur, buf + 1, sizeof(cur));
cur = osmo_revbytebits_32(cur);
memcpy(buf + 1, &cur, sizeof(cur));
would be my approach. So let's compare it. Your code without the loop
is here https://goo.gl/vD3kqQ and the memcpy variant is https://goo.gl/5kzTmx
now if there would be a cloud microbenchmark we could resolve that once and
for all.
