Because period and duty cycle are defined in the PWM framework structs
as ints with units of nanoseconds, the maximum time duration that can be
set is limited to ~2.147 seconds. Redefining them as u64 values will
enable larger time durations to be set.
As a first step, prepare drivers to handle the switch to u64 period and
duty_cycle by replacing division operations involving pwm period and duty cycle
with their 64-bit equivalents as appropriate. The actual switch to u64 period
and duty_cycle follows as a separate patch.
Where the dividend is 64-bit but the divisor is 32-bit, use *_ULL
macros:
- DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL
- DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST_ULL
- div_u64
Where the divisor is 64-bit (dividend may be 32-bit or 64-bit), use
DIV64_* macros:
- DIV64_U64_ROUND_CLOSEST
- div64_u64
