NAK to blind search/replace of __builtin_clzl()/clzl().

Although the size of long is 64 bit on 64 bit architectures, it only 32 bit on 32 bit architectures.

You need to look at the types these builtins operate on:
- E.g. in the hash library (patch 3/5) prim_hitmask[i]/sec_hitmask[i] are uint32_t, so rte_ctz32() would be the correct replacement. (I am now asking myself why they were using __builtin_ctzl() instead of __builtin_ctz() here... Probably by mistake.)
- And if the type is "long", you need conditional compiling (or a wrapper macro) to choose between the 32 bit or 64 bit variants.

NB: You can blindly replace __builtin_ctzll()/clzll(), if any, by 64 bit functions.
