lib/div64.c: off by one in shift
fls counts bits starting from 1 to 32 (returns 0 for zero argument). If we add 1 we shift right one bit more and loose precision from divisor, what cause function incorect results with some numbers. Corrected code was tested in user-space, see bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202391 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1548686944-11891-1-git-send-email-sgruszka@redhat.com Fixes: 658716d1 ("div64_u64(): improve precision on 32bit platforms") Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Reported-by: Siarhei Volkau <lis8215@gmail.com> Tested-by: Siarhei Volkau <lis8215@gmail.com> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
