The kernel may delay interrupts for a long time which can result in timers
being delayed. If this occurs the intel_pstate driver will crash with a
divide by zero error:
divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP

The duration between reads of the APERF and MPERF registers overflowed a s32
sized integer in intel_pstate_get_scaled_busy()'s call to div_fp(). The result
is that int_tofp(duration_us) == 0, and the kernel attempts to divide by 0.
While the kernel shouldn't be delaying for a long time, it can and does
happen and the intel_pstate driver should not panic in this situation. This
patch changes the div_fp() function to use div64_s64() to allow for "long"
division. This will avoid the overflow condition on long delays.
[v2]: use div64_s64() in div_fp()
