Thank you for your review. Yes, I referred to the existing variable__fls()
implementation, which should be fine.

I did consider it, but I did not find any toolchain that provides an
implementation similar to __builtin_ror or __builtin_rol. If there is one,
please help point it out.
In addition, I did not consider it carefully before. If the rotate function
is to be genericized, all archneed to include <asm-generic/bitops/rotate.h>.
I missed this step.
