Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: shmem: fix division by zero
Problem Details: Fix a division by zero which we have in shmem_truncate_range() and shmem_unuse_inode() when using big PAGE_SIZE values (e.g. 256kB on ppc44x). With 256kB PAGE_SIZE, the ENTRIES_PER_PAGEPAGE constant becomes too large (0x1.0000.0000) on a 32-bit kernel, so this patch just changes its type from 'unsign...
