[PATCH] mm/page_alloc.c: Use div64_ul instead of do_div

[PATCH] mm/page_alloc.c: Use div64_ul instead of do_div

[cgel.zte]

From: Changcheng Deng <deng.changcheng@zte.com.cn>

do_div() does a 64-by-32 division. Here the divisor is an unsigned long
which on some platforms is 64 bit wide. So use div64_ul instead of do_div
to avoid a possible truncation.

You really need to check the domain of the divisor, not its type.
Just because the type is 64 bits doesn't mean that the value can be
anywhere near even 32 bits.
