Willy Tarreau e66ee1a651 BUG/MINOR: intops: fix mul32hi()'s off-by-one
mul32hi() multiples a constant a with a variable b from 0 to 0xffffffff
and shifts the result by 32 bits. It's visible that it's always impossible
to reach the constant a this way because the product always misses exactly
one unit of a to be preserved. And this cannot be corrected by the caller
either as adding one to the output will only shift the output range, and
it's not possible to pass 2^32 on the ratio <b>. The right approach is to
add "a" after the multiplication so that the input range is always
preserved for all ratio values from 0 to 0xffffffff:

     (a=0x00000000 * b=0x00000000 + a=0x00000000) >> 32 = 0x00000000
     (a=0x00000000 * b=0x00000001 + a=0x00000000) >> 32 = 0x00000000
     (a=0x00000000 * b=0xffffffff + a=0x00000000) >> 32 = 0x00000000
     (a=0x00000001 * b=0x00000000 + a=0x00000001) >> 32 = 0x00000000
     (a=0x00000001 * b=0x00000001 + a=0x00000001) >> 32 = 0x00000000
     (a=0x00000001 * b=0xffffffff + a=0x00000001) >> 32 = 0x00000001
     (a=0xffffffff * b=0x00000000 + a=0xffffffff) >> 32 = 0x00000000
     (a=0xffffffff * b=0x00000001 + a=0xffffffff) >> 32 = 0x00000001
     (a=0xffffffff * b=0xffffffff + a=0xffffffff) >> 32 = 0xffffffff

This is only used in freq_ctr calculations and the slightly lower value
is unlikely to have ever been noticed by anyone. This may be backported
though it is not important.
