ARM: 8027/1: fix do_div() bug in big-endian systems
In big-endian systems, "%1" get the most significant part of the value, cause the instruction to get the wrong result.
When viewing ftrace record in big-endian ARM systems, we found that
the timestamp errors:
swapper-0 [001] 1325.970000: 0:120:R ==> [001] 16:120:R events/1
events/1-16 [001] 1325.970000: 16:120:S ==> [001] 0:120:R swapper
swapper-0 [000] 1325.1000000: 0:120:R + [000] 15:120:R events/0
swapper-0 [000] 1325.1000000: 0:120:R ==> [000] 15:120:R events/0
swapper-0 [000] 1326.030000: 0:120:R + [000] 1150:120:R sshd
swapper-0 [000] 1326.030000: 0:120:R ==> [000] 1150:120:R sshd
When viewed ftrace records, it will call the do_div(n, base) function, which achieved arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h in. When n = 10000000, base = 1000000, in do_div(n, base) will execute "umull %Q0, %R0, %1, %Q2".
