lib: mul_u64_u64_div_u64(): rename parameter 'c' to 'd'
Patch series "Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()", v5.
The pwm-stm32.c code wants a 'rounding up' version of
mul_u64_u64_div_u64(). This can be done simply by adding 'divisor - 1' to
the 128bit product. Implement mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, c, d) = (a *
b + c)/d based on the existing code. Define mul_u64_u64_div_u64(a, b, d)
as mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, 0, d) and mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup(a,
b, d) as mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, d-1, d).
Only x86-64 has an optimsed (asm) version of the function. That is
optimised to avoid the 'add c' when c is known to be zero. In all other
cases the extra code will be noise compared to the software divide code.
The test module has been updated to test mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup() and
also enhanced it to verify the C division code on x86-64 and the 32bit
division code on 64bit.
This patch (of 9):
Change to prototype from mul_u64_u64_div_u64(u64 a, u64 b, u64 c) to
mul_u64_u64_div_u64(u64 a, u64 b, u64 d). Using 'd' for 'divisor' makes
more sense.
An upcoming change adds a 'c' parameter to calculate (a * b + c)/d.
