[PATCH 4.14 69/92] lib/div64.c: off by one in shift

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Apr 18 2019 - 14:05:58 EST


[ Upstream commit cdc94a37493135e355dfc0b0e086d84e3eadb50d ]

fls counts bits starting from 1 to 32 (returns 0 for zero argument). If
we add 1 we shift right one bit more and loose precision from divisor,
what cause function incorect results with some numbers.

Corrected code was tested in user-space, see bugzilla:
