Description
Turns out that my original implementation had an incorrect conclusion about the unavailability of GCC's __builtin_ctz family of bitcount functions. Upon suggestions from Xin Li I retested with builtin's enabled and these functions work just fine in the kernel. This patch changes removes LZ4_FORCE_SW_BITCOUNT so that we get the added speed boost from builtin bitcounts.

Per the author's request, this is now resolved, but thanks to another push.
