Hi Mark. The fault exists in FSF GCC 4.5.2 and Linaro GCC 4.5-2011.04. The fault does not exist in FSF GCC 4.6.0 or Linaro GCC 4.6-2011.04.

If we do have to do something in the callers rather than in do_div() the annotation seems substantially more taseful than inserting a random asm into the code.
I agree. for this patch which will not be applied, people can just get information about how to workaround the gcc issue while they have the same problem. google can find there are other people who failed to compile wm8974 module too. eg. http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/03/30/%23ubuntu-arm.txt
Andrew Stubbs, Michael Hope in Linaro's toolchain team are working hard on this gcc issue. there have been many update today: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48783
Is this just some Linaro toolchain that has the issue rather than a vanilla GCC release? If so and they fix the compiler bug it doesn't seem terribly useful to bodge it in mainline.
