Subject: [Patch] blk-wbt: fix a divide-by-zero error in rwb_arm_timer()

From: Cong Wang <cong.wang@bytedance.com>

We hit a divide error in rwb_arm_timer() and crash dump shows
rqd->scale_step is 16777215 (0xffffff in hex), so the expression
"(rqd->scale_step + 1) << 8)" is 0x100000000, which is just beyond
32-bit integer range, hence it is truncated to 0 and int_sqrt(0)
returns 0 too, so we end up passing 0 as a divisor to div_u64().

Looking at the assembly code generated:

    add    $0x1,%edi
    shl    $0x8,%edi
    movslq %edi,%rdi
    mov    0x10(%rbx),%rdi
    xor    %edx,%edx
    mov    %eax,%ecx
    shl    $0x4,%rdi
    mov    %rdi,%rax
    div    %rcx

we notice that the left shift is still using 32 bit register %edi,
because the type of rqd->scale_step is 'int'. But actually int_sqrt()
takes 'long' as a parameter, so the temporary result should fit well
at least on x86_64. Fix this by explicitly casting the expression to
u64 and call int_sqrt64() to avoid any ambiguity on 32 bit.

After this patch, the assembly code looks correct:

    add    $0x1,%edi
    movslq %edi,%rdi
    shl    $0x8,%rdi
    mov    0x10(%rbx),%rdi
    xor    %edx,%edx
    mov    %eax,%ecx
    shl    $0x4,%rdi
    mov    %rdi,%rax
    div    %rcx
