[PATCH 1/2] drm/nouveau: replace ffsll with __ffs64

The ffsll function is a lot slower than the __ffs64 built-in which
compiles to a single instruction on 64-bit. It's also nice to avoid
custom versions of standard functions. Note that __ffs == ffs - 1.

I wrote a user-space program to test these out and make sure that the
functions behaved as expected. The logic in abi16 had to be flipped around a
bit since __ffs doesn't distinguish between 0 and 1. There's a minor
difference in that init->channel is going to get returned as 0 for ENOSPC vs
 -1, but I can't imagine that'd matter.
