*sigh* and here I though it being placed right next to hweight_long()
which uses the arch hweightN() would be clue enough.

If people are so clueless, who says they'll read a comment.. but sure I
guess I can add one.

I've actually sneaked one non-constant usage in, but since its in an
init path I didn't care to fix that, but I guess here goes:

Subject: bitops: Dummyify the compile-time hweight versions

Because it seems allowed to not think and write kernel code.
