Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix the sparc32 mpilib build mess.

The long and short of it is that the longlong.h header added by
the mpilib code is quite old and out of date.

Here I've solved the clz_tab[] multiple definition problem as
well as the outdated udiv_qrnnd() definition, but long term
we should probably have a more uptodate longlong.h header
provides at include/linux/longlong.h to avoid this kind of
stuff in the future.

It's a part of the libgcc interface and therefore has no
business being tucked down deep under lib/foo/ somewhere.
