Pankaj Raghav e03c16fb4a readahead: use ilog2 instead of a while loop in page_cache_ra_order()
A while loop is used to adjust the new_order to be lower than the
ra->size.  ilog2 could be used to do the same instead of using a loop.

ilog2 typically resolves to a bit scan reverse instruction.  This is
particularly useful when ra->size is smaller than the 2^new_order as it
resolves in one instruction instead of looping to find the new_order.

No functional changes.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
