This patch edits RADEONLog2 and ATILog2 to use the x86 bsr instruction
instread of looping through bits. It should provide a somewhat of a
speed increase in this function on x86 and AMD64 architectures. Note:
the bsr instruction was added with the 80386 CPU and is therefore not
compatible with earlier CPUs.
