In the end I have included four patches on this occasion: 1/4 is the test 
module, 2/4 is an inline documentation fix/clarification for the `do_div' 
wrapper, 3/4 enables the MIPS `__div64_32' backend and 4/4 adds a small 
performance improvement to it.
How can I apply them to the kernel? There is something wrong which makes
git am fail.
I don't know.  The changes were made against vanilla 5.12-rc7, but then 
the pieces affected have not changed for ages.  FWIW I can `git am' the 
series as received back just fine.
Please can you point me to some download/pull/gitweb? It seems as if the series
also did not appear at https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-mips/list/

These changes have been verified with a DECstation system with an R3400 
MIPS I processor @40MHz and a MTI Malta system with a 5Kc MIPS64 processor 
@160MHz.
I'd like to test on ~320 MHz JZ4730.
Sure, I'd love to hear how this code performs with other implementations.

BR and thanks,
