[PATCH] roundup_pow_of_two() 64-bit fix

Browse Source 
fls() takes an integer, so roundup_pow_of_two() is busted for ulongs larger
than 2^32-1.

Fix this by implementing and using fls_long().

(Why does roundup_pow_of_two() return a long?)

(Why is roundup_pow_of_two() __attribute_const__ whereas long_log2() is
__attribute_pure__?)

(Why does long_log2() suck so much?  Because we were missing fls_long()?)
