Subject: [PATCH] kernel/power/hibernate.c: be sure of 'start' is not bigger
 than 'stop'

For do_div(), it need 'u64' type, which means the outside must be sure
of 'start' is not bigger than 'stop', or it will report warning.

The related warning (with allmodconfig for unicore32):

    CC      kernel/power/hibernate.o
  kernel/power/hibernate.c: In function ‘swsusp_show_speed’:
  kernel/power/hibernate.c:237: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
