Subject: [PATCH] page: get_order() optimization
Date: Fri, 01 Apr 2011 19:18:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1301685493-2567-1-git-send-email-mcsim.planeta@gmail.com> (raw)

Loop was repalaced with __builtin_clz(). This still allows to precompute
constants, but on some architectures it uses special instruction to
calculate order.
