Hello!

Why you didn't Cc me (as a reviewer)?

do_div() does a 64-by-32 division. Here the divisor is an
unsigned long which on some platforms is 64 bit wide. So use
div64_ul instead of do_div to avoid a possible truncation.

Eliminate the following coccicheck warning:
./drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvpp2/mvpp2_main.c:2742:1-7: WARNING:
do_div() does a 64-by-32 division, please consider using div64_ul
instead.

Why not just:
