patch "iio:core: fix IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL sign handling" added to staging-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    iio:core: fix IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL sign handling

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio:core: fix IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL sign handling

7985e7c100 ("iio: Introduce a new fractional value type") introduced a
new IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL value type meant to represent rational type numbers
expressed by a numerator and denominator combination.

Formating of IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL values relies upon do_div() usage. This
fails handling negative values properly since parameters are reevaluated
as unsigned values.
Fix this by using div_s64_rem() instead. Computed integer part will carry
properly signed value. Formatted fractional part will always be positive.
