Subject: [PATCH] x86: merge the simple bitops and move them to bitops.h

x86: merge the simple bitops and move them to bitops.h

Some of those can be written in such a way that the same
inline assembly can be used to generate both 32 bit and
64 bit code.

For ffs and fls, x86_64 unconditionally used the cmov
instruction and i386 unconditionally used a conditional
branch over a mov instruction. In the current patch I
chose to select the version based on the availability
of the cmov instruction instead. A small detail here is
that x86_64 did not previously set CONFIG_X86_CMOV=y.

Hi Ingo,

On a 64-bit machine the cmov instruction is always available. I made
that explicit by turning on CONFIG_X86_CMOV for all 64-bit builds.

This patch introduces a change in behaviour for 32-bit builds: if
the selected cpu has the cmov instruction, it will now be used by
the functions ffs and fls.

For the i386 defconfig the number of occurrences of cmov increases
from 4336 to 4429 and vmlinux text size increases 15 bytes. When
building for 486 no cmovs are generated, as expected.

Greetings,
	Alexander
