From: Matt Sealey <matt.sealey@xxxxxxx>
Subject: lib/lzo: enable 64-bit CTZ on Arm

ARMv6 Thumb state introduced an RBIT instruction which, combined with CLZ
as present in ARMv5, introduces an extremely fast path for counting
trailing zeroes.

Enable the use of the GCC builtin for this on ARMv6+ with
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL to ensure we get the 'new' instruction usage.

We do not bother enabling LZO_USE_CTZ64 support for ARMv5 as the builtin
code path does the same thing as the LZO_USE_CTZ32 code, only with more
register pressure.
