That's what I did and they were identical to the original values
calculated with /. I just looked at include/linux/math64.h and found the
following comment:

/**
 * div_u64 - unsigned 64bit divide with 32bit divisor
 *
 * This is the most common 64bit divide and should be used if possible,
 * as many 32bit archs can optimize this variant better than a full 64bit
 * divide.
 */

Although this doesn't explicitly state what the function returns to me
this sounds more like the quotient is returned rather than the remainder?
