[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/6] replace qemu_fls() with pow2ceil()/pow2floor()

[Peter Maydell]

We have a qemu_fls() function which is just a silly wrapper
around clz32() and which is used in only a handful of places
in the codebase. It turns out that all of those are really
trying to round up or down to a power of 2, which is something
we have utility functions for. This series replaces all
the qemu_fls() calls with pow2ceil() or pow2floor(), and then
removes the now-unused function.

For the case where you really want to do bit counting rather
than just power-of-2 rounding, you should use the clz/clo
functions directly.

No changes from v1 to v2 except for a new patch 6 which moves
the pow2ceil and pow2floor functions to inline.

Peter Maydell (6):
  hw/pci: Use pow2ceil() rather than hand-calculation
  hw/virtio/virtio-pci: Use pow2ceil() rather than hand-calculation
  hw/block/nvme.c: Use pow2ceil() rather than hand-calculation
  exec.c: Use pow2floor() rather than hand-calculation
  Remove unused qemu_fls function
  Make pow2ceil() and pow2floor() inline
