#1572524 — [PATCH] log2: make order_base_2() behave correctly on const input value zero

Subject[PATCH] log2: make order_base_2() behave correctly on const input value zero
Message-ID<t6t3r-6OU-17@gated-at.bofh.it>
The function order_base_2() is defined (according to the comment block)
as returning zero on input zero, but subsequently passes the input into
roundup_pow_of_two(), which is explicitly undefined for input zero.

This has gone unnoticed until now, but optimization passes in GCC 7 may
produce constant folded function instances where a constant value of zero
is passed into order_base_2(), resulting in link errors against the
deliberately undefined '____ilog2_NaN'.

So update order_base_2() to adhere to its own documented interface.

Ok, looks like you screwed up the types according to the build server.

Making the return type "unsigned long" is slightly excessive. If you
need an unsigned long to describe the log2 of a number in the kernel,
you're playing with numbers that are *way* too big.

The old code used "ilog2()", which returns an int.

Which is plenty big enough of a type.

Yeah I cloned roundup_pow_of_2, and failed to spot that ilog2 returns an int. I sent out the v2 already
