/*
* __do_div64: perform a division with 64-bit dividend and 32-bit divisor.
*
* Note: Calling convention is totally non standard for optimal code.
* This is meant to be used by do_div() from include/asm/div64.h only.
*
* Input parameters:
* xh-xl = dividend (clobbered)
* r4 = divisor (preserved)
*
* Output values:
* yh-yl = result
* xh = remainder
*
* Clobbered regs: xl, ip

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/linkage.h`, `asm/assembler.h`, `asm/unwind.h`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/arm.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
