There are actually two terms that could answer this question depending on the size of the projection/bump. My answer would be "process", however, that is usally associated with large projection/bumps whereas "eminence" is a term associated with small projection/bump. As for ANY bony projection or bump, I do not believe there is umbrella-like term for it.
