powerpc: Use builtin functions for fls()/__fls()/fls64()

With the fls() functions as defined in arch/powerpc/include/asm/bitops.h
GCC will not optimise the code in case of constant parameter.

This patch replaces __fls() by the builtin function, and modifies
fls() and fls64() to use builtins instead of inline assembly

For non constant calls, the generated code is doing the same:

int testfls(unsigned int x)
{
	return fls(x);
}

unsigned long test__fls(unsigned long x)
{
	return __fls(x);
}

int testfls64(__u64 x)
{
	return fls64(x);
}

Those builtins have been in GCC since at least 3.4.6 (see
