And the winner is:
/usr/src/linux-2.6.33-rc7/include/linux/math64.h:91

static __always_inline u32
__iter_div_u64_rem(u64 dividend, u32 divisor, u64 *remainder)
{
        u32 ret = 0;

        while (dividend >= divisor) {
                /* The following asm() prevents the compiler from
                   optimising this loop into a modulo operation.  */
                asm("" : "+rm"(dividend));

                dividend -= divisor;
                ret++;
        }

        *remainder = dividend;

        return ret;
}


while ......



Do I see a divisor == 0 here?? ;)
