There is a 64-bit division in iwl_mvm_get_crosstimestamp_fw(), which
results in a link failure when building 32-bit architectures with clang:
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __udivdi3
>>> referenced by ptp.c
>>> drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/mvm/ptp.o:(iwl_mvm_phc_get_crosstimestamp) in archive vmlinux.a
GCC has optimizations for division by a constant that clang does not
implement, so this issue is not visible when building with GCC.
Using div_u64() would resolve this issue, but Arnd points out that this
can be quite expensive and the timestamp is being read at nanosecond
granularity. Nick pointed out that the result of this division is being
stored to a 32-bit type anyways, so truncate gp2_10ns first then do the
division, which elides the need for libcalls.
