On a ppc64 machine, when fio is invoked with the following configuration file (generated by fstests' generic/300 test), it loops indefinitely.

This can cause "overlap" variable in axmap_set_fn() to never becomes zero. To fix this the commit adds a 64-bit version of __ilog2() (obtained from the Linux kernel's arch/powerpc/include/asm/bitops.h).
