Commit c732a52d3e3b7ed42d7daa94ba40a83408cd6f22 from Richard Henderson
changed leul_to_cpu() in bswap.h from a macro to an inline function.  Both
versions use HOST_LONG_BITS, but as an inline, HOST_LONG_BITS now needs to
be evaluated at the point of definition rather than only when the macro is
invoked.

HOST_LONG_BITS is defined in qemu-common.h... which in turn includes
bswap.h leading to a circular dependency.  This doesn't show up on little
endian hosts like x86, because the macros used within leul_to_cpu() end
up removing the reference to HOST_LONG_BITS.  This problem, however, breaks
build on all big endian hosts such as powerpc.

This patch fixes the problem by moving the basic HOST_LONG_BITS definition
to osdep.h, which is already included before bswap.h.

Anthony, Richard, anyone?

Please apply - qemu has now been build-broken on all big endian
platforms for a month.

I know.  See also my bswap.h patch which also fixes the width
of long vs uintptr_t.  No one seems willing to pick these up...

In both cases, the patch:
 * was sent out after the soft freeze
 * doesn't have a "for-1.4" tag
 * doesn't have a summary line that clearly says "fixes build
   failure" either
 * hasn't got a Reviewed-by: tag from anybody

so I'm not terribly surprised they haven't got picked up.
You could start by reviewing each others' patches :-)

First version was the day before.

Yes, that one is my fault.

It's gotten Acked-by's though.

I ack'ed it, which in my terminology usually means that I reviewed and
tested it.

Personally I see no reason to keep around misnamed HOST_LONG_BITS at all
when we can easily calculate its value using sizeof(uintptr_t) * 8 or
replace it by different conditions as suggested by rth. I thus prefer
his patch and have been waiting for Blue to pick it up for 1.4.

Ok, I missed rth's patch to do this differently.  Note that sizeof()
will not work in this case, because we need the correct value at cpp
time.

Sure, whatever.  Can we please just get whichever damn fix *in*.

For the sake of completeness, "rth's patch" means:

commit 91107fdf4443d2171e06840e87277bb7a047343b
Author: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>
Date:   Mon Feb 4 16:21:06 2013 -0800

    bswap: Fix width of swap in leul_to_cpu

Correct?

If so, this was committed before you sent this note.  Can someone
confirm if we still have a problem on big endian hosts?

Anthony Liguori

Around Central European lunch time today things seemed to compile fine,
and `make check` worked, too. (Thanks!)
