Using mult_frac() to fix it. Andrew Paniakin also recently found and privately reported this issue, on 64 bit systems. This can also happen on 64-bit systems, once the charged size exceeds ~17 TiB. On systems running for long time in production, this issue can actually happen. More specifically, when a DAMOS scheme having the time quota run for longtime, throughput calculation can overflow and set esz too small. As a result, speed of the scheme get unexpectedly slow.

This is already taken into account when checking "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", but not in the KASAN Makefile adding those parameters when "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" is enabled. Replace the version check with "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX", which already validates that mem-intrinsic prefix parameter can be used, and choose the correct name depending on compiler. GCC 13 and above trigger "CONFIG_CC_HAS_KASAN_MEMINTRINSIC_PREFIX" which prevents `mem{cpy,move,set}()` being redefined in "mm/kasan/shadow.c" since commit 36be5cba99f6 ("kasan: treat meminstrinsic as builtins in uninstrumented files"), as we expect the compiler to prefix those calls with `__(hw)asan_` instead. But as the option passed to GCC has been incorrect, the compiler has not been emitting those prefixes, effectively never calling the instrumented versions of `mem{cpy,move,set}()` with "CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS" enabled. If "CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCES" is enabled, this issue would be mitigated as it redefines `mem{cpy,move,set}()` and properly aliases the `__underlying_mem*()` that will be called to the instrumented versions.

FAILED: patch "[PATCH] kbuild: userprogs: use correct linker when mixing clang and" failed to apply to 5.15-stable tree

The patch below does not apply to the 5.15-stable tree.
