[PATCH v5 1/3] lib: Add strongly typed 64bit int_sqrt

From: Crt Mori
Date: Wed Dec 13 2017 - 09:00:58 EST


There is no option to perform 64bit integer sqrt on 32bit platform.
Added stronger typed int_sqrt64 enables the 64bit calculations to
be performed on 32bit platforms. Although int_sqrt() is a rough
approximation, the same algorithm is used in int_sqrt64() as good
enough on 32bit platform.
