With "Revert "kbuild: use -Oz instead of -Os when using clang"
(https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1051932/) the above
error is fixed, a few comments inline for if the patch is
resurrected in the future because __lshrti3 is emitted in a
different context.

Consider using __int128 instead. Definition and use need a
'defined(__SIZEOF_INT128__)' guard  (similar for mode (TI)), since
these 128 bit types aren't supported on all platforms.

This struct isn't needed, struct DWstruct can be used.

use TItype for input/output, which is what gcc does, though the above
matches the interface in the documentation.

include <linux/types.h> and use u64 instead of unsigned long long.
