------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Alter get_order() so that it can make use of ilog2() on a constant
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>

Alter get_order() so that it can make use of ilog2() on a constant to produce
a constant value, retaining the ability for an arch to override it in the
non-const case.
