This breaks ia64:

In file included from include/asm/ptrace.h:234,
from include/asm/processor.h:19,
from include/linux/prefetch.h:14,
from include/linux/list.h:8,
from include/linux/wait.h:22,
from include/linux/fs.h:266,
from init/do_mounts_initrd.c:3:
include/asm/page.h:165: error: syntax error before '?' token
include/asm/page.h:170: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `order'
include/asm/page.h:170: error: conflicting types for 'order'
include/asm/page.h:168: error: previous declaration of 'order' was here
include/asm/page.h:170: error: braced-group within expression allowed only inside a function
include/asm/page.h:170: warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `ia64_intri_res'

But for some reason putting ARCH_HAS_GET_ORDER into
include/asm-ia64/bitops.h and including linux/log2.h in
include/asm-ia64/page.h doesn't fix it.

I didn't pursue it further, because sprinkling ARCH_HAS_FOO things into
bitops.h(!) is all rather hacky. Better to use CONFIG_* so they're always
visible and one knows where to go to find things.
