Hi Arnd,

On 32-bit x86 when building with clang-9, the loop gets turned back into an inefficient division that causes a link error:
kernel/time/vsyscall.o: In function `update_vsyscall': vsyscall.c:(.text+0xe3): undefined reference to `__udivdi3'
Use the provided __iter_div_u64_rem() function that is meant to address the same case in other files.

I am trying to test this patch using clang-9 tip:
# clang -v clang version 9.0.0 (git@github.com:llvm-mirror/clang.git 6ed0749151866894a67a3e7eefdc1f3a547daa0e) (git@github.com:llvm-mirror/llvm.git a10a70238ace1093cad3adeb94814b422bd1b5c1)
but I get a lot of errors similar to the one below:

Could you please tell me which version of the compiler did you use?
My building command is:
# make mrproper && make CC=clang HOSTCC=clang i386_defconfig && make ARCH=i386 CC=clang HOSTCC=clang -j56
