If one looks at the logic as a whole...

tfr->len * 9ULL * 100000 / spi_used_hz < 30

A little algebra can change that into:

tfr->len < spi_used_hz / 300000

So rather than add more 64-bit math, it can be removed entirely.  Both
the length and speed are 32 bits and there's no need to multiply them
into something larger than might need 64 bits.
