The sis7019 driver uses __ffs(), which is available in 2.6 kernels, but not in most earlier ones. This patches the driver to use a local version assembly version, as the hardware is SiS 55x only (i486/Pentium-ish).

This should go into alsa-driver/include/adriver.h.
I'm not sure -- there's no other inline assembly there, and if I provide an x86 _ffs() fallback, then it'll break on other architectures...
It won't break unless another driver actually uses __ffs(), and then we can still add a generic implementation.
