bpf: do not use reciprocal divide
[ Upstream commit aee636c4809fa54848ff07a899b326eb1f9987a2 ]
At first Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide
were not correct. (off by one in some cases)
http://www.wireshark.org/~darkjames/reciprocal-buggy.c
He could also show this with BPF:
http://www.wireshark.org/~darkjames/set-and-dump-filter-k-bug.c
The reciprocal divide in linux kernel is not generic enough,
lets remove its use in BPF, as it is not worth the pain with
current cpus.
