bpf: Improve bucket_log calculation logic

It was reported that the max_t, ilog2, and roundup_pow_of_two macros have
exponential effects on the number of states in the sparse checker.

This patch breaks them up by calculating the "nbuckets" first so that the
"bucket_log" only needs to take ilog2().

In addition, Linus mentioned:

  Patch looks good, but I'd like to point out that it's not just sparse.

  You can see it with a simple

    make net/core/bpf_sk_storage.i
    grep 'smap->bucket_log = ' net/core/bpf_sk_storage.i | wc

  and see the end result:

      1  365071 2686974

  That's one line (the assignment line) that is 2,686,974 characters in
  length.

  Now, sparse does happen to react particularly badly to that (I didn't
  look to why, but I suspect it's just that evaluating all the types
  that don't actually ever end up getting used ends up being much more
  expensive than it should be), but I bet it's not good for gcc either.
