I think using the C implementations is fine. Not sure how much the
FFI is going to matter for performance, but it should be rare enough
that is shouldn't matter (and hopefully we will get cross lang LTO 
or something similar at some point).

We could also just implement the intrinsic(s) ourselves, but then 
the u64 divisions would be implicit which is probably undesired.
We could also rename the intrinsics so they are only usable from 
specific crates. 

I think we need the opinion of the some arm people here.

I'm not sure what could be done in upstream rust to help here
and that would probably need be a very specific features for the
kernel.
