PATCH v7 1/3 lib: Add strongly typed 64bit int_sqrt

There is no option to perform 64bit integer sqrt on 32bit platform. Added stronger typed int_sqrt64 enables the 64bit calculations to be performed on 32bit platforms. Although int_sqrt() is a rough approximation, the same algorithm is used in int_sqrt64() as good enough on 32bit platform.

As you've changed the return type for the 64-bit function to u32, there is a unsigned long / u32 return mismatch on 64 bit platforms.

I suspect you need to define this as:

#define int_sqrt64(x) ((u32)int_sqrt(x))

Should probably use fls64 here.

I suspect you need to define this as:

#define int_sqrt64(x) ((u32)int_sqrt(x))

What's wrong with using C ?

static inline u32 int_sqrt64(u64 x)

{
	return int_sqrt(x);
}

Duh. Nothing at all.
