[PATCH v2] block: simplify blksize_bits() implementation

From: Dawei Li
Date: Sat Oct 29 2022 - 22:19:13 EST


Convert current looping-based implementation into bit operation,
which can bring improvement for:

1) bitops is more efficient for its arch-level optimization.

2) Given that blksize_bits() is inline, _if_ @size is compile-time
constant, it's possible that order_base_2() _may_ make output
compile-time evaluated, depending on code context and compiler behavior.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/TYCP286MB2323169D81A806A7C1F7FDF1CA309@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

v2: Remove the ternary operator, based on Bart's suggestion
But this may lead to break for corner cases below:
BUILD_BUG_ON(blksize_bits(1025) != 11);
So make a minor modification by adding (SECTOR_SIZE - 1) before
shifting.
