time: Workaround gcc loop optimization that causes 64bit div errors
Early 4.3 versions of gcc apparently aggressively optimize the raw time accumulation loop, replacing it with a divide. On 32bit systems, this causes the following link errors: undefined reference to `__umoddi3' undefined reference to `__udivdi3' The gcc issue has been fixed in 4.4 and greater. This patch replaces the accumulation loop with a do_div, as suggested by Linus.
