commit d397a45fc741c80c32a14e2de008441e9976f50c upstream.

Commit 0e4b01df8659 had a bunch of fixups to use the right division
method.  However, it seems that after all that it still wasn't right --
div_u64 takes a 32-bit divisor.

The headroom is still large (2^32 pages), so on mundane systems you
won't hit this, but this should definitely be fixed.

Fixes: 0e4b01df8659 ("mm, memcg: throttle allocators when failing reclaim over memory.high")
