Nick Desaulniers 94d23f8b78 ARM: 9256/1: NWFPE: avoid compiler-generated __aeabi_uldivmod 
commit 3220022038 upstream.

clang-15's ability to elide loops completely became more aggressive when
it can deduce how a variable is being updated in a loop. Counting down
one variable by an increment of another can be replaced by a modulo
operation.

For 64b variables on 32b ARM EABI targets, this can result in the
compiler generating calls to __aeabi_uldivmod, which it does for a do
while loop in float64_rem().

For the kernel, we'd generally prefer that developers not open code 64b
division via binary / operators and instead use the more explicit
helpers from div64.h. On arm-linux-gnuabi targets, failure to do so can
result in linkage failures due to undefined references to
__aeabi_uldivmod().

While developers can avoid open coding divisions on 64b variables, the
compiler doesn't know that the Linux kernel has a partial implementation
of a compiler runtime (--rtlib) to enforce this convention.

It's also undecidable for the compiler whether the code in question
would be faster to execute the loop vs elide it and do the 64b division.

While I actively avoid using the internal -mllvm command line flags, I
think we get better code than using barrier() here, which will force
reloads+spills in the loop for all toolchains.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
