[1/6] math.h: Add macros for rounding to closest value

Add below rounding related macros:

round_closest_up(x, y) : Rounds x to closest multiple of y where y is a
power of 2, with a preference to round up in case two nearest values are
possible.

round_closest_down(x, y) : Rounds x to closest multiple of y where y is a
power of 2, with a preference to round down in case two nearest values are
possible.

roundclosest(x, y) : Rounds x to closest multiple of y, this macro should
generally be used only when y is not multiple of 2 as otherwise
round_closest* macros should be used which are much faster.

Examples:
 * round_closest_up(17, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_up(15, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_up(14, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_down(17, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_down(15, 4) = 16
 * round_closest_down(14, 4) = 12
 * roundclosest(21, 5) = 20
 * roundclosest(19, 5) = 20
 * roundclosest(17, 5) = 15

NOTE: This patch is inspired from the Mentor Graphics IPU driver [1]
which uses similar macro locally and which is updated in further patch
in the series to use this generic macro instead along with other drivers
having similar requirements.

With consistency in mind, why is there no underscore?

Too heavy sentence. Did you mean "its" not "it's"?

What about:
There can be two closest values. I.e. the difference between the 
specified value and its rounded up and down values is the same. In that 
case, the rounded up value is preferred.
?

The same for round_closest_up().

This is already identical to the existing round_down, no ?

Hi Jiri,

Thanks for the review.

This is as per the convention followed in math.h for existing rounding macros
round_up, roundup, round_down, rounddown :

for e.g. It use "_" for macros which work on power of 2 for e.g. we  have
round_down, round_up macros which work on power of 2 and it remove "_" for
normal rounding macros for e.g. rounddown and roundup which are normal
rounding macros.

There was already a discussion around naming convention in previous patch
versions here [1] we aligned on this.

Yeah this looks good but I would still prefer to prepend to this the text "The
value can be either rounded up or rounded down depending upon rounded value's
closeness to the specified value" just to avoid any confusion as it caused a
bit of confusions in earlier iterations.

Naming aside, is there an actual use case for having both roundclosest()
and round_closest_up() today?

(i.e., is there any potential caller that would actually care about the
rounding direction for borderline cases?)

Won't this go wrong if (x) + (y) / 2 overflows?  This may happen even in
some cases where the correctly rounded value would be in range.

The existing rounddown() already leaves something to be desired IIUC: if
given a negative dividend, it looks like it actually rounds up, at least
on some arches.  But maybe people don't use it that way very often.
Perhaps I'm missing something.

Nopes both are different as described in the comments, round_down rounds
down to next specified power of 2, but round_closest_down rounds to
closest multiple of the specified power (which could be higher or lower)
and if there are two closest multiples then it gives preference to lower
value as shown in below examples :
 - round_closest_down(15, 4) = 16
 - round_down(15,4) = 12
 - round_closest_down(14, 4) = 12
 - round_closest_up(14, 4) = 16
