I can confirm this - I started bisect and I have found this one:

    video: ipu: avoid overflow issue

    Multiplication, as "clk->parent->rate * 16" may overflow. So use
    do_div to avoid such issue.

Checking the patch, I have found:

clk->rate = (u64)(clk->parent->rate * 16) / div;


This seems the cause for the failing build.

This confirms an issue. IMHO we can replace it with:

clk->rate = (u64)lldiv(clk->parent->rate * 16, div);

Peng, what do you mind ?

Best regards,
Stefano Babic
