Subject: [PATCH] Fix get_order() [try #2]

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

Provide an ilog2_up() that rounds its result up (ilog2() rounds down).

Fix get_order() to use ilog2_up() not ilog2() to get the correct rounding.

Adjust the documentation surrounding ilog2() and co. to indicate what rounding
they perform.

Fix roundup_pow_of_two(1) to give 1, not 0.
