[PATCH v2] linux/kernel.h: Fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST with unsigned divisors

[Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>]

Commit 263a523 fixes a warning seen with W=1 due to change in
DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST. Unfortunately, the C compiler converts divide operations
with unsigned divisors to unsigned, even if the dividend is signed and
negative (for example, -10 / 5U = 858993457). The C standard says "If one
operand has unsigned int type, the other operand is converted to unsigned
int", so the compiler is not to blame.
As a result, DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U) and similar operations now return
bad values, since the automatic conversion of expressions such as "0 - 2U/2"
to unsigned was not taken into account.

Fix by checking for the divisor variable type when deciding which operation
to perform. This fixes DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U), but still returns bad values
for negative dividends divided by unsigned divisors. Mark the latter case as
unsupported.
