Subject: [POWERPC] Optimize fls64() on 64-bit processors
Date: Fri, 18 Apr 2008 15:19:41 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <18440.12141.938002.331310@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com> (raw)
64-bit powerpc processors can find the leftmost 1 bit in a 64-bit
doubleword in one instruction, so use that rather than using the
generic fls64(), which does two 32-bit fls() calls.

This is on top of a patch from Alexander van Heukelum that was posted
to lkml (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/4/16/107), which just uses
asm-generic/bitops/find.h in place of some declarations we had in
asm-powerpc/bitops.h.
