With the final change in this patch series, the framework will support
periods that exceed U32_MAX. My concern is that using a typecast would
mean that in those cases, this driver will not support > U32_MAX values.
Using DIV64_U64_ROUND_CLOSEST makes the driver future proof and able to
handle > U32_MAX values correctly. What do you think?

Thank you.
