My implementation of next_pow2_l() was incorrect. e.g.
perf record -m4296015872 uname rounding mmap pages size to 17592186044416 bytes (4294967296 pages) Invalid argument for --mmap_pages/-m
Notice that the next power-of-2 value 4294967296 is less than the option value 4296015872.
Change to using __builtin_clzl() and prevent the shift being equal to the width of the operand. Also __builtin_clzl(x) is undefined if x is 0, so adjust the condition to preclude that possibility. Now:
perf record -m4296015872 uname rounding mmap pages size to 35184372088832 bytes (8589934592 pages) Invalid argument for --mmap_pages/-m
