After some research I understood your commit log. I'd write:

	do_div() does a 64-by-32 division. Here the divsor 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.

The priority of this patch seems to be low, as the device seems to exist
only on (32bit) arm.

This must be

	clk_period_ns = div64_ul(clk_period_ns, clk_freq);

as div64_ul has a different calling convention than do_div. Same problem
in the next hunk.

Best regards
