Subject: [PATCH] lib/div64.c: off by one in shift
Git-commit: cdc94a37493135e355dfc0b0e086d84e3eadb50d
Patch-mainline: v5.1-rc1
References: bsc#1051510

fls counts bits starting from 1 to 32 (returns 0 for zero argument).  If
we add 1 we shift right one bit more and loose precision from divisor,
what cause function incorect results with some numbers.

Corrected code was tested in user-space, see bugzilla:
