4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Gregor Boirie <gregor.boi...@parrot.com>
commit 171c0091837c81ed5c949fec6966bb5afff2d1cf upstream.
7985e7c100 ("iio: Introduce a new fractional value type") introduced a
new IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL value type meant to represent rational type numbers
expressed by a numerator and denominator combination.
Formating of IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL values relies upon do_div() usage. This
fails handling negative values properly since parameters are reevaluated
as unsigned values.
Fix this by using div_s64_rem() instead. Computed integer part will carry
properly signed value. Formatted fractional part will always be positive.
