[Intel-wired-lan] [net-next v2] e1000e: fix call to do_div() to use u64 arg

We were using s64 for lat_ns (latency nano-second value) since in
our calculations a negative value could be a resultant.  For negative
values, we then assign lat_ns to be zero, so the value passed to
do_div() was never negative, but do_div() expects the argument type
to be u64, so do a cast to resolve a compile warning seen on
PowerPC.
