      common implementation of iterative div/mod · f595ec96
      Jeremy Fitzhardinge authored
      We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
      when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
      Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
      into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
      even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.
      
      The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
      gcc from performing the transformation.
      
      This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
      to replace the open-coded versions I know about.
