Provide DIV_U64_ROUND_CLOSEST helper which uses div_u64 to perform
division rounded to the closest integer using unsigned 64bit
dividend and unsigned 32bit divisor.

Thanks for your patch!

Given "dividend" should already be an unsigned 64-bit value, I don't
think the cast to "u64" is needed. Similar macros in this file also
don't have the cast.
It is just to ensure that plus operation between dividend and _tmp is
evaluated in 64-bit context to prevent overflow. Just a case when user
calls this macro with 32-bit dividend param. As it is a macro (and not
inline function) type is not automatically enforced.

DIV_S64_ROUND_CLOSEST macro assigns its argument into temporary 64-bit
variable which then ensures usage of 64-bit arithmetic operations. Same
applies for DIV64_U64_ROUND_CLOSEST and DIV64_U64_ROUND_UP macros.

So this is reason why I added explicit cast to u64.
