Davidlohr Bueso 6687659568 locking/pvqspinlock: Fix division by zero in qstat_read()
While playing with the qstat statistics (in <debugfs>/qlockstat/) I ran into
the following splat on a VM when opening pv_hash_hops:

  divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP
  ...
  RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810b61fe>]  [<ffffffff810b61fe>] qstat_read+0x12e/0x1e0
  ...
  Call Trace:

    [<ffffffff815720f6>] ? entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1e/0xa8

Fix this by verifying that qstat_pv_kick_unlock is in fact non-zero,
similarly to what the qstat_pv_latency_wake case does, as if nothing
else, this can come from resetting the statistics, thus having 0 kicks
should be quite valid in this context.
