While tracking down a problem where constant expressions used by
BUILD_BUG_ON() suddenly stopped working[1], we found that an added static
initializer was convincing the compiler that it couldn't track the state
of the prior statically initialized value. Tracing this down found that
ffs() was used in the initializer macro, but since it wasn't marked with
__attribute__const__, the compiler had to assume the function might
change variable states as a side-effect (which is not true for ffs(),
which provides deterministic math results).
Add missing __attribute_const__ annotations to C-SKY's implementations of
ffs(), __ffs(), fls(), and __fls() functions. These are pure mathematical
functions that always return the same result for the same input with no
side effects, making them eligible for compiler optimization.
Build tested ARCH=csky defconfig with GCC csky-linux 15.1.0.

find_bit API and bitmap API are closely related, but inclusion paths
are different - include/asm-generic and include/linux, correspondingly.
In the past it made a lot of troubles due to circular dependencies
and/or undefined symbols. Fix this by moving find.h under include/linux.

Building csky:allmodconfig results in the following build error.
In file included from ./include/linux/bitops.h:33,
from ./include/linux/log2.h:12,
from kernel/bounds.c:13:
./arch/csky/include/asm/bitops.h:77: error: "__clear_bit" redefined
Since commit 9248e52fec ("locking/atomic: simplify non-atomic wrappers"),
__clear_bit is defined in include/asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h,
and the define in the csky include file is no longer necessary or useful.
Remove it.
