There is no option to perform 64bit integer sqrt on 32bit platform.
Added stronger typed int_sqrt64 enables the 64bit calculations to
be performed on 32bit platforms. Although int_sqrt() is a rough
approximation, the same algorithm is used in int_sqrt64() as good
enough on 32bit platform.

It was my suggestion that we shoudn't really be doing this in an individual
driver. If people feel that it is not of general enough applicability then
let use know and we'll move it back into the driver code.

Thanks,

Jonathan
