I made a thinko. The remainder should not be re-multiplied with the
numerator...

	tmp = (s64)*val * rescale->numerator;
	rem = do_div(tmp, rescale->denominator);
	*val = tmp;
	tmp = (s64)rem * 1000000000LL + (s64)*val2 * rescale->numerator;
	do_div(tmp, rescale->denominator);
	*val2 = tmp;

And that actually reduces the risk of overflow too, which is nice!

Cheers,
Peter
