ring-buffer: check for divide by zero in ring-buffer-benchmark
Although we check if "missed" is not zero, we divide by hit + missed,
and the addition can possible overflow and become a divide by zero.
This patch checks for this case, and will report it when it happens
then modify "hit" to make the calculation be non zero.
[ Impact: prevent possible divide by zero in ring-buffer-benchmark ]
