[PATCH 4/5] __div64_32(): make it overridable at compile time

From: Nicolas Pitre
Date: Mon Nov 02 2015 - 17:48:44 EST


Some architectures may want to override the default implementation
at compile time to do things inline. For example, ARM uses a
non-standard calling convention for better efficiency in this case.
