bitops: Optimise get_order()

Optimise get_order() to use bit scanning instructions if such exist rather than
a loop.  Also, make it possible to use get_order() in static initialisations
too by building it on top of ilog2() in the constant parameter case.

This has been tested for i386 and x86_64 using the following userspace program,
and for FRV by making appropriate substitutions for fls() and fls64().  It will
abort if the case for get_order() deviates from the original except for the
order of 0, for which get_order() produces an undefined result.  This program
tests both dynamic and static parameters.

Disassembling the x86_64 version of the above code shows:

As can be seen, the new __get_order() function is simpler than the
old_get_order() function.
