Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Create a DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST macro to do division with rounding
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2008 17:01:32 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081111010132.1730.76566.stgit@elm3a70.beaverton.ibm.com> (raw)


Create a helper macro to divide two numbers and round the result to the
nearest whole number.  This is a helper macro for hwmon drivers that
want to convert incoming sysfs values per standard hwmon practice, though
the macro itself can be used by anyone.
