[PATCH 00/17] Add __attribute_const__ to ffs()-family implementations

[Kees Cook]

Hi,

While tracking down a problem where constant expressions used by
BUILD_BUG_ON() suddenly stopped working[1], we found that an added static
initializer was convincing the compiler that it couldn't track the state
of the prior statically initialized value. Tracing this down found that
ffs() was used in the initializer macro, but since it wasn't marked with
__attribute_const__, the compiler had to assume the function might
change variable states as a side-effect (which is not true for ffs(),
which provides deterministic math results).

Add KUnit tests for the family of functions and then add __attribute_const__
to all architecture implementations and wrappers.
