Hi Peter,

Sorry about that... Like I said in the cover letter, I'm working on
getting kunit tests running for the iio-rescale. At the moment it still
requires copying part of the code over and sure enough I forgot to copy
some of it back. My apologies for the noise...

This is what I meant to send:

case IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL:
if (check_mul_overflow(*val, rescale->numerator, (s32 *)&tmp) ||
check_mul_overflow(*val2, rescale->denominator, (s32 *)&tmp2)) {
tmp = (s64)*val * rescale->numerator;
tmp2 = (s64)*val2 * rescale->denominator;
factor = gcd(tmp, tmp2);
do_div(tmp, factor);
do_div(tmp2, factor);
}

*val = tmp;
*val2 = tmp2;
return ret;

I'll also move the opening bracket on a new line if you prefer.

I added negative test cases to take this into account. I'll update and
resend. I'm going to find a way to get the test cases ready for the next
revision.

Again, my apologies for this. It's not what I meant to send.
Hopefully the snippet above makes more sense.

Thanks for your time,
Liam
