i386: Replace assembly versions of e_log2f with generic e_log2f.c
This patch replaces i386 assembly versions of e_log2f with generic
e_log2f.c.  For workload-spec2017.wrf, on Nehalem, it improves
performance by:

                           Before            After     Improvement
reciprocal-throughput      92.3845          30.8752       199%
latency                    112.855          54.8645       105%

On Skylake, it improves performance by:

                           Before            After     Improvement
reciprocal-throughput      98.7488          22.7507       334%
latency                    118.01           51.6083       128%

On IvyBridge with --disable-multi-arch, it improves performance by:

                           Before            After     Improvement
reciprocal-throughput      106.635          28.8596       269%
latency                    129.888          56.9187       128%
