The long and short of it is that the longlong.h header added by
the mpilib code is quite old and out of date.

Here I've solved the clz_tab[] multiple definition problem as
well as the outdated udiv_qrnnd() definition, but long term
we should probably have a more uptodate longlong.h header
provides at include/linux/longlong.h to avoid this kind of
stuff in the future.

It's a part of the libgcc interface and therefore has no
business being tucked down deep under lib/foo/ somewhere.
