We noticed that recent kernels didn't boot on our 1GHz Canyonlands 460EX
boards anymore. As it seems, patch 8d165db1 [powerpc: Improve
decrementer accuracy] introduced this problem. The routine div_sc()
overflows with shift = 32 resulting in this incorrect setup:

time_init: decrementer frequency = 1000.000012 MHz
time_init: processor frequency   = 1000.000012 MHz
clocksource: timebase mult[400000] shift[22] registered
clockevent: decrementer mult[33] shift[32] cpu[0]

This patch now introduces a local div_dc64() version of this function
so that this overflow doesn't happen anymore.
