[Buildroot] [PATCH] kvm-unit-tests: fix build on x86-64 with specific gcc versions

[Thomas Petazzoni]

kvm-unit-tests uses the following code on x86/x86-64:

static inline u64 scale_delta(u64 delta, u64 mul_frac)
{
        u64 product, unused;

        __asm__ (
                "mul %3"
                : "=d" (product), "=a" (unused) : "1" (delta), "rm" ((u64)mul_frac) );

        return product;
}

The "mul" instruction does not have a suffix that indicates the width of
the data being multiplied. When the data is passed in a register, there
is no need to specify the width, but with some gcc versions, the data is
passed as a memory reference, and therefore the assembler does not know
the width of the data to be multiplied. It causes the following build
failure:

x86/hyperv_clock.c: Assembler messages:
x86/hyperv_clock.c:21: Error: no instruction mnemonic suffix given and no register operands; can't size instruction

Since the data being multiplied is 64 bit, we explicitly specify the
instruction as being "mulq".

+Subject: [PATCH] x86/hyperv_clock: be explicit about mul instruction data size
+
+With gcc 4.7.2, the build fails with:
+
+x86/hyperv_clock.c: Assembler messages:
+x86/hyperv_clock.c:21: Error: no instruction mnemonic suffix given and no register operands; can't size instruction
+
+In order to avoid this, make the mul instruction data size explicit by
+adding the appropriate suffix. It operates on 64-bit data, so use
+"mulq".
