-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------

commit bea6832cc8c4a0a9a65dd17da6aaa657fe27bc3e upstream.

On architectures where cputime_t is 64 bit type, is possible to trigger
divide by zero on do_div(temp, (__force u32) total) line, if total is a
non zero number but has lower 32 bit's zeroed. Removing casting is not
a good solution since some do_div() implementations do cast to u32
internally.

This problem can be triggered in practice on very long lived processes:

[PG: sched/core.c is just sched.c in 2.6.34; also the do_div() on
__force u32 isn't explicitly seen since that is in v3.3-rc1~191^2~11]
