[IA64] fix fls()

The ia64-version of fls() never worked as intended (the bitnumbering
was off by 1 and fls(0) was undefined).  This patch fixes the problem
by using a popcnt-based fls(), which on McKinley-derived cores is
slightly faster than both ia64_fls() and generic_fls().  The resulting
code, however, is bigger (7-8 bundles instead of about 3 bundles).
Also switch ia64_popcnt() to __builtin_popcountl() for GCC v3.4 or
newer since the compiler can predicate that and schedule it better.

Thanks to Simon Derr and Matt Mackall for tracking down this bug.
