[RESEND,PATCH] ARM: fix __div64_32() error when compiling with clang

__do_div64 clobbers the input register r0 in little endian system.
According to the inline assembly document, if an input operand is
modified, it should be tied to a output operand. This patch can
prevent compilers from reusing r0 register after asm statements.
