Always fully coalesce guest Rx packets into the minimum number of ring
slots. Reducing the number of slots per packet has significant
performance benefits when receiving off-host traffic.
Results from XenServer's performance benchmarks:
Baseline Full coalesce
Interhost VM receive 7.2 Gb/s 11 Gb/s
Interhost aggregate 24 Gb/s 24 Gb/s
Intrahost single stream 14 Gb/s 14 Gb/s
Intrahost aggregate 34 Gb/s 34 Gb/s
However, this can increase the number of grant ops per packet which
decreases performance of backend (dom0) to VM traffic (by ~10%)
/unless/ grant copy has been optimized for adjacent ops with the same
source or destination (see "grant-table: defer releasing pages
acquired in a grant copy"[1] expected in Xen 4.6).

At least on ARM, do_div() is optimized to turn constant divisors into
an inline multiplication by the reciprocal value at compile time.
However this optimization is missed entirely whenever ktime_divns() is
used and the slow out-of-line division code is used all the time.
Let ktime_divns() use do_div() inline whenever the divisor is constant
and small enough. This will make things like ktime_to_us() and
ktime_to_ms() much faster.

There is no possibility of any race on updating last_index, trans_table or
total_trans as these are updated only by cpufreq_stat_notifier_trans() which
will be called sequentially.
The only place where locking is still relevant is: cpufreq_stats_update(), which
updates time_in_state and last_time. This can be called by two thread in
parallel, that may result in races.
The two threads being:
- sysfs read of time_in_state
- and frequency transition that calls cpufreq_stat_notifier_trans().
Remove locking from the first case mentioned above.

We need to call cpufreq_stats_update() to update 'time_in_state' for the last
frequency. This is achieved by calling it from cpufreq_stat_notifier_trans(),
which is called after frequency transition.
But if we detect that the cpu's frequency haven't really changed and its a false
POSTCHANGE notification, we don't really need to update time_in_state.
It wouldn't cause any harm in calling cpufreq_stats_update() but we can avoid
calling it here and call it when the frequency really changes. The result will
be the same but more efficient.
