linux/kernel.h: fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST to support negative divisors While working on a thermal driver I encounter a scenario where the divisor could be negative, instead of adding local code to handle this I though I first try to add support for this in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST. Add support to DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST for negative divisors if both dividend and divisor variable types are signed. This should not alter current behavior for users of the macro as previously negative divisors where not supported. Before: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( 59, 4) = 15 DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( 59, -4) = -14 DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( -59, 4) = -15 DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( -59, -4) = 14 After: DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( 59, 4) = 15 DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( 59, -4) = -15 DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( -59, 4) = -15 DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST( -59, -4) = 15 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment, per Guenter] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161222102217.29011-1-niklas.soderlund+renesas@ragnatech.se Signed-off-by: Niklas Söderlund <niklas.soderlund+renesas@ragnatech.se> Reviewed-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
