[PATCH] bitops: generic hweight{64,32,16,8}()

This patch introduces the C-language equivalents of the functions below:

unsigned int hweight32(unsigned int w);
unsigned int hweight16(unsigned int w);
unsigned int hweight8(unsigned int w);
unsigned long hweight64(__u64 w);

In include/asm-generic/bitops/hweight.h

This code largely copied from: include/linux/bitops.h
