while at it you could as well remove the unneeded in a C file "inline" 
attribute.

Thanks

Yeah... hard to comment not-inlined patches...

hmm... foo_do_div()... it seems to be yet-another-implementation
of asm/div64.h. If so, it is better to just remove this thing
and use the existing function.

The reason for this patch is that some version of GCC generated some garbage 
code on this function under certain conditions. Removing inline completly on 
this static function in a C file is fine by me. Do I need to create another 
patch?

Just looked inside the code: it is not re-implementing the wheel. I don't like
such macros, but it should not hurt. 

So, I just applied your patch.

Thanks,
Mauro.
