pseries: Add helper to calculate recommended hash page table size
At present we calculate the recommended hash page table (HPT) size for a pseries guest just once in ppc_spapr_init() before allocating the HPT. In future patches we're going to want this calculation in other places, so this splits it out into a helper function. While we're at it, change the calculation to use ctz() instead of an explicit loop. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Reviewed-by: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru>
