Subject: [PATCH 3/4] LOG2: Alter get_order() so that it can make use of ilog2() on a constant [try #4]

From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>

Alter get_order() so that it can make use of ilog2() on a constant to produce a
constant value, retaining the ability for an arch to override it in the
non-const case.
