That's an unrelated change so it would have to go in a different
patch.

I think adding extra parenthesis is the wrong idea.  No one is ever
confused by '*' vs '/' precedence.

Mathematically, it doesn't matter which order you do it in.  In C,
the order matters because you care about round errors and integer
overflows.  If you put parenthesis around the multiply you're saying
that you care about rounding errors and not integer overflows.  If
you put it around the divide then it means the opposite.

In this case the multiply happens first obviously, but it's not
explicitly called out with extra parenthesis.
