b43: LP-PHY: Fix and simplify Qdiv roundup
The Qdiv roundup routine is essentially a fixed-point division algorithm, using only integer math. However, the version in the specs had a major error that has been recently fixed (a missing quotient++). Replace Qdiv roundup with a rewritten, simplified version.
