Ah, I missed that div_l is u64. NSEC_PER_SEC and BIT(div_h) are both
long quantities only and 1000000000 * 2**15 might overflow that.

I'm aware it might lose precision. But calling aspeed_pwm_get_period()
determines the setting from reading registers, if you reuse all
information available in aspeed_pwm_set_period() this is cheaper. Also
it might be beneficial to first compute all necessary register values
and then write them in quick sequence to keep the window for glitches
small. Given that aspeed_pwm_set_period and aspeed_pwm_set_duty both
have only a single caller, doing both in a single function might be an
idea.

Best regards
Uwe
