[PATCH] sched: fair group: fix divide by zero

[Lai Jiangshan]

I found a bug which can be reproduced by this way:(linux-2.6.26-rc5, x86-64)
(use 2^32, 2^33, ...., 2^63 as shares value)

# mkdir /dev/cpuctl
# mount -t cgroup -o cpu cpuctl /dev/cpuctl
# cd /dev/cpuctl
# mkdir sub
# echo 0x8000000000000000 > sub/cpu.shares
# echo $$ > sub/tasks
oops here! divide by zero.

This is because do_div() expects the 2th parameter to be 32 bits,
but unsigned long is 64 bits in x86_64.
