The code below would fix an issue where a bitmap would have been recycled twice. This would not fix the issue where a bitmap would have been recycled where it should have never been recycled at all.
BTW: the boolean expression (bitmap1 != bitmap2) or (bitmap1 == bitmap2) is very fast. It is just comparing two 32-bit values.
