Subject: [patch 08/11] mm/page-writeback.c: use div64_ul() for u64-by-unsigned-long divide
Date: Mon, 13 Jan 2020 16:29:26 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200114002926.Cskkh%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200113162831.f7d69e11e9e673c40005c9b0@linux-foundation.org>

Subject: mm/page-writeback.c: use div64_ul() for u64-by-unsigned-long divide

The two variables 'numerator' and 'denominator', though they are declared
as long, they should actually be unsigned long (according to the
implementation of the fprop_fraction_percpu() function)

And do_div() does a 64-by-32 division, while the divisor 'denominator' is
unsigned long, thus 64-bit on 64-bit platforms.  Hence the proper function
to call is div64_ul().
