perf/x86: Fix incorrect use of do_div() in NMI warning
I completely botched understanding the calling conventions of
do_div(). I assumed that do_div() returned the result instead
of realizing that it modifies its argument and returns a
remainder. The side-effect from this would be bogus numbers
for the "msecs" value in the warning messages:
INFO: NMI handler (perf_event_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 0.114 msecs
Note, there was a second fix posted by Stephane Eranian for
a separate patch which I also botched:
