The series looks good, but I'd prefer (especially for patch 4 which is
in a fast path) if pow2ceil and pow2floor were made inline.
BTW,
return 1ULL << (64 - nlz);
can be implemented as "rotate_right(1ULL, nlz)" (the latter is (1ULL <<
(64 - nlz)) | (1ULL >> nlz), which only differs in the undefined case
nlz == 0). However, this is probably something for the compiler to
implement, not really something to do in our sources.
