ppc6xx_defconfig fails building sfc.ko module, complaining

This is due to the following test

 		if (EFX_MIN_DMAQ_SIZE % reader->value) {

Because reader->value is u64.

As EFX_MIN_DMAQ_SIZE value is 512, reader->value is obviously small
enough for an u32 calculation, so cast it as (u32) for the test, to
avoid the need for _umoddi3.
That isn't the same e.g. if reader->value is 2**32 + small.  Which
probably cannot happen, but :-)
