/**
  Returns the bit position of the highest bit set in a 32-bit value. Equivalent
  to log2(x).

  This function computes the bit position of the highest bit set in the 32-bit
  value specified by Operand. If Operand is zero, then -1 is returned.
  Otherwise, a value between 0 and 31 is returned.

  @param  Operand The 32-bit operand to evaluate.

  @retval 0..31  Position of the highest bit set in Operand if found.
  @retval -1     Operand is zero.
