Subject[PATCH] mm/page-writeback.c: avoid potential division by zero
Date
The variables 'min', 'max' and 'bw' are unsigned long and
do_div truncates them to 32 bits, which means it can test
non-zero and be truncated to zero for division.
Fix this issue by using div64_ul() instead.

For the two variables 'numerator' and 'denominator',
though they are declared as long, they should actually be
unsigned long (according to the implementation of
the fprop_fraction_percpu() function).
