Problem Details: This reverts commit 39d61db0edb34d60b83c5e0d62d0e906578cc707. The commit was buggy in multiple ways: - the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with - it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd never see the bug except for constant arguments. - the new "get_order...
