I meant an optimization for a 32-bit dividend, not divisor,
e.g. doing:
diff --git a/include/linux/ktime.h b/include/linux/ktime.h
index 2b6a204bd8d4..4fbf735ec0af 100644
--- a/include/linux/ktime.h

do_div(tmp, div);
I also just looked at the implementation of do_div() in
include/asm-generic/div64.h, and it already does that for
non-constant divisors, but I don't understand __div64_const32()
enough to know if the compiler end up doing the same
optimization for the constant divisor we have here.
