Martin Schwidefsky	d9f7a745d5	[S390] __div64_32 for 31 bit. The clocksource infrastructure introduced with commit `ad596171ed` broke 31 bit s390. The reason is that the do_div() primitive for 31 bit always had a restriction: it could only divide an unsigned 64 bit integer by an unsigned 31 bit integer. The clocksource code now uses do_div() with a base value that has the most significant bit set. The result is that clock->cycle_interval has a funny value which causes the linux time to jump around like mad. The solution is "obvious": implement a proper __div64_32 function for 31 bit s390.

[S390] __div64_32 for 31 bit.

The clocksource infrastructure introduced with commit
ad596171ed broke 31 bit s390.
The reason is that the do_div() primitive for 31 bit always
had a restriction: it could only divide an unsigned 64 bit
integer by an unsigned 31 bit integer. The clocksource code
now uses do_div() with a base value that has the most
significant bit set. The result is that clock->cycle_interval
has a funny value which causes the linux time to jump around
like mad.
The solution is "obvious": implement a proper __div64_32
function for 31 bit s390.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
