The standard roundup_pow_of_two() and rounddown_pow_of_two() macros use
unsigned long internally, which on 32-bit architectures (like arm32) is
a 32-bit type.
drm_test_buddy_alloc_exceeds_max_order() uses these on a u64 value,
where they silently truncate the 10GB allocation, giving unexpected
success in DRM-CI. (see below the snip).
Fix this by replacing the those macros with safe 64-bit power-of-two
calculations using ilog2().

This is a straightforward rebase of patch 39 of v12 of this series:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260326185413.1205870-40-jim.cromie@gmail.com/
The only changes are updating the buddy path (as it's no longer a part of
DRM), and adding the Fixes tag.
This is a fairly hacky solution: I've got a nicer series which adds clearer
helpers and generally cleans up all of these macros on 32-bit systems, but
it's much larger (and growing as more things need cleaning up), so I'd
rather have this more urgent fix go in immediately, and save the cleanup
for a less-urgent follow-up series:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260830103321.2042968-1-david@davidgow.net/
As noted in the original series, this is causing KUnit test failures on
all 32-bit architectures:
