Yeah, wanted to apply it later today or tomorrow, and push it to you this
week - well before the end of the merge window.

Correct, this is what Stanislaw's series from earlier today does:

[PATCH -tip 1/4] sched: Avoid cputime scaling overflow
[PATCH -tip 2/4] sched: Do not account bogus utime
[PATCH -tip 3/4] sched: Avoid prev->stime underflow
[PATCH -tip 4/4] Revert "math64: New div64_u64_rem helper"

so it gets rid of the div64_u64_rem() bits as well.

Thanks,

Ingo
