Can this overflow? No, because fd->denom is u64.
But if fd->denom is changed to u32, it needs a cast to u64 here.

As detected by the kbuild test robot, this should use do_div().

Don't cast the divider to u64, as this will turn a 64-by-32 division into a
64-by-64 division.
As detected by the kbuild test robot, this should use do_div().

u64 sounds overkill to me, but it looks like that was done to avoid overflow in
the multiplications?
