Shouldn't we have a fallback here in case assembler does not support clz?

It would be great to provide a generic fallback implementation indeed. However, mips32 is already a quite old ISA, so I doubt this would be useful to anyone.

I think this should be static_assert(false, "CLZ opcode is not available for this ISA"); so that someone will notice this when compiling instead of waiting to compile and do somewhat thorough testing on a device.

You're right. I also took the opportunity to move the check from MIPSAssembler.h to MacroAssemblerMIPS.h, because if someone wants to write a generic implementation for an older ISA, MacroAssemblerMIPS.h is a better place than MIPSAssembler.h

LGTM

Could anyone approve this patch?

Had to look up the encoding.
