While is_power_of_2() is an inline function and likely gets optimized
for compile time constant arguments, it still doesn't produce an integer
constant expression that could be used in, say, static data
initialization or case labels.

Make is_power_of_2() an integer constant expression when possible,
otherwise using the inline function to avoid multiple evaluation of the
parameter.

The alternative would be to define both a function and a macro version
of is_power_of_2(), and let the callers decide what to use.
