Use the log2 and fls64 header files directly from the kernel.

Please update based on http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/U-Boot/Patches#Attributing_Code_Copyrights_Sign to note which kernel hash this comes from. Similar for the other parts as needed.
The need to state the kernel hash or version is clear.
My question is: if we import a file from the kernel should we keep the license text intact or should it be adapted to the SPDX-License-Identifier style?
We don't have a hard rule here as we know the kernel will not adopt SPDX tags currently. For rare sync ups like this probably is, switching to a tag might make sense, for stuff we'll resync every few kernel releases, it's just resync noise possibly so I'll leave that to the people doing the sync.
