2.6.35-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com>
commit c7dcf87a6881bf796faee83003163eb3de41a309 upstream.
Early 4.3 versions of gcc apparently aggressively optimize the raw
time accumulation loop, replacing it with a divide.
On 32bit systems, this causes the following link errors:
undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
The gcc issue has been fixed in 4.4 and greater.
This patch replaces the accumulation loop with a do_div, as suggested
by Linus.
