On 64-bit, Delta division and remainder use Rust operators, which panic
for a zero divisor and for the i64::MIN / -1 overflow case. On 32-bit,
the C helpers do not provide the same behavior, so the same API calls can
return architecture-dependent values or emit a divide-by-zero diagnostic.
Check both invalid inputs before selecting the architecture-specific
implementation. This gives both APIs the same panic conditions as i64's
`/` and `%` operators and documents them in the public API.
Tested on x86-64 and ARMv7 QEMU with CONFIG_SAMPLE_RUST_REPRO=y: zero
divisors and i64::MIN / -1 panic for both APIs, while 10 / 3 returns 3
and 10 % 3 returns 1 on both architectures.
Fixes: 4521438fb076 ("rust: time: Implement basic arithmetic operations for Delta")
Closes: https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/issues/1254

We should probably find a better place for these. How about
rust/kernel/math.rs? Opinions?
