rS300700: Both Clang and GCC cannot generate efficient reserve_pv_entries().

Summary

As alc pointed out, Clang does not generate optimal popcnt_pc_map_elem_pq().

http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?552BFEB2.8040407

I tried many implementations but I was not able to generate optimal code for both Clang and GCC. This patch just implements it in inline assembly without loop or unrolled loop. Also, newly added bit_count() is used instead of bitcount64() for the non-POPCNT case.

3150	Since this function assumes a certain map size, I'd suggest adding a CTASSERT to that effect, so that a map size change would be detected at compile time.
