[PATCH v2 1/2] powerpc: net: filter: fix DIVWU instruction opcode

Currently DIVWU stands for *signed* divw opcode:

7d 2a 4b 96 	divwu   r9,r10,r9
7d 2a 4b d6 	divw    r9,r10,r9

Use the *unsigned* divw opcode for DIVWU.

Added credit to Vassili Karpov (malc) who kindly reviewed generated assembly
[1] and highlighted usage of signed division.
Note: temporary, for technical reason, he's not able to receive email.
