s390/bitops: use generic find bit functions / reimplement _left variant
Just like all other architectures we should use out-of-line find bit operations, since the inline variant bloat the size of the kernel image. And also like all other architecures we should only supply optimized variants of the __ffs, ffs, etc. primitives. Therefore this patch removes the inlined s390 find bit functions and uses the generic out-of-line variants instead. The optimization of the primitives follows with the next patch. With this patch also the functions find_first_bit_left() and find_next_bit_left() have been reimplemented, since logically, they are nothing else but a find_first_bit()/find_next_bit() implementation that use an inverted __fls() instead of __ffs(). Also the restriction that these functions only work on machines which support the "flogr" instruction is gone now. This reduces the size of the kernel image (defconfig, -march=z9-109) by 144,482 bytes. Alone the size of the function build_sched_domains() gets reduced from 7 KB to 3,5 KB. We also git rid of unused functions like find_first_bit_le()... Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
