mtd: nandsim: don't open code a do_div helper
We don't need to open code the divide function, just use div_u64 that
already exists and do the same job. While this is a straightforward
clean up, there is more to that, the real motivation for this.
While building on a cross compiling environment in armel, using gcc
4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5), I was getting the following build
error:
ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/mtd/nand/nandsim.ko] undefined!
After investigating with objdump and hand built assembly version
generated with the compiler, I narrowed __aeabi_uldivmod as being
generated from the divide function. When nandsim.c is built with
-fno-inline-functions-called-once, that happens when
CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is enabled, the do_div optimization in
arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h doesn't work as expected with the open
coded divide function: even if the do_div we are using doesn't have a
constant divisor, the compiler still includes the else parts of the
optimized do_div macro, and translates the divisions there to use
__aeabi_uldivmod, instead of only calling __do_div_asm -> __do_div64 and
optimizing/removing everything else out.
So to reproduce, gcc 4.6 plus CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y and
CONFIG_MTD_NAND_NANDSIM=m should do it, building on armel.
After this change, the compiler does the intended thing even with
-fno-inline-functions-called-once, and optimizes out as expected the
constant handling in the optimized do_div on arm. As this also avoids a
build issue, I'm marking for Stable, as I think is applicable for this
case.
