Subject: [PATCH 3.16 154/245] ftrace: Avoid potential division by zero in
 function profiler

3.16.83-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Wen Yang <wenyang@...ux.alibaba.com>

commit e31f7939c1c27faa5d0e3f14519eaf7c89e8a69d upstream.

The ftrace_profile->counter is unsigned long and
do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which means it can test
non-zero and be truncated to zero for division.
Fix this issue by using div64_ul() instead.

Fixes: e330b3bcd8319 ("tracing: Show sample std dev in function profiling")
Fixes: 34886c8bc590f ("tracing: add average time in function to function profiler")
