The ordinal of the a set bit is simply the number of set bits before it; counting those doesn't need to be done one bit at a time. While at it, update the parameters to unsigned int.
It is not completely unthinkable that gcc would see pos as compile-time constant 0 in one of the uses of bitmap_pos_to_ord. Since the static inline frontend bitmap_weight doesn't handle nbits==0 correctly (it would behave exactly as if nbits==BITS_PER_LONG), use __bitmap_weight.
