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. Signed-off-by: Pali Rohár <pali@kernel.org>Thanks for your patch!quoted

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.
