According to the GCC documentation, the behaviour of __builtin_clz() and __builtin_clzl() is undefined if the value of the input argument is zero. Without handling this special case, these builtins have been used for emulating the following instructions: * Count Leading Zeros Word (cntlzw[.]) * Count Leading Zeros Doubleword (cntlzd[.])
This fixes the emulated behaviour of these instructions by adding an additional check for this special case.
