I compiled the kernel successfully with the patch on a 32bit arm system and Kernel 3.19.0. Obviously that was good luck. http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gccint/Integer-library-routines.html describes that library function __udivti3 might be used on other platforms. And using library functions is not allowable in the kernel. Thank you for reviewing. I will update the patch.
