David Laight 630f96a687 lib: mul_u64_u64_div_u64(): optimise multiply on 32bit x86
gcc generates horrid code for both ((u64)u32_a * u32_b) and (u64_a +
u32_b).  As well as the extra instructions it can generate a lot of spills
to stack (including spills of constant zeros and even multiplies by
constant zero).

mul_u32_u32() already exists to optimise the multiply.  Add a similar
add_u64_32() for the addition.  Disable both for clang - it generates
better code without them.

Move the 64x64 => 128 multiply into a static inline helper function for
code clarity.  No need for the a/b_hi/lo variables, the implicit casts on
the function calls do the work for us.  Should have minimal effect on the
generated code.

Use mul_u32_u32() and add_u64_u32() in the 64x64 => 128 multiply in
mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64().
