arm: Use builtins for ffs/fls
Since ARMv5, the clz instruction allows for efficient implementation of
ffs/fls with builtins. Until ARMv7 (with Thumb-2), this instruction is
only available in ARM mode. LTO makes it difficult to force specific
functions to be in ARM mode, as it is effectively a form of very
aggressive inlining. To work around this, fls/ffs are implemented in
assembly for ARMv5 and ARMv6 when compiling U-Boot in Thumb mode.
Overall, this saves around 75 bytes per call.
This code is synced with v5.15 of the Linux kernel.
