Sparse emits errors about ilog2() in array indices because of the use of __ilog2_32() and __ilog2_64(), rightly so (https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sparse/msg03471.html). Create a const_ilog2() variant that works with sparse for this scenario. (Note: checkpatch.pl complains about missing parentheses, but that appears to be a false positive. I can get rid of the warning simply by inserting whitespace, making checkpatch "see" the whole macro). Signed-off-by: Martin Wilck <mwilck@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
