The __DIVIDE() macro checks whether it is called with a 32-bit or 64-bit
dividend, to select the appropriate divide-and-round-up routine.
As the check uses the ternary operator, the result will always be
promoted to a type that can hold both results, i.e. unsigned long long.
When using this result in a division on a 32-bit system, this may lead
to link errors like:
ERROR: "__udivdi3" [drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand.ko] undefined!
Fix this by casting the result of the 64-bit division to the type of the
dividend.

This fixes the root cause of the link failure seen with
m68k/allmodconfig since commit 3057fcef385348fe ("mtd: rawnand: Make
sure we wait tWB before polling the STATUS reg").
An alternative mitigation was posted as "[PATCH] m68k: Implement
ndelay() as an inline function to force type checking/casting"
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/13/102).

Hm, it's a bit hard to follow when you place the cast here. One could
wonder why a cast to (__typeof__(dividend)) is needed since
DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL() already returns a (__typeof__(dividend)) type.
How about:
/*
* Cast to type of dividend is needed here to guarantee that the
* result won't be an unsigned long long when the dividend is an
* unsigned long, which is what the compiler does when it sees a
* ternary operator with 2 different return types.
*/
(__typeof__(dividend))(sizeof(dividend) == sizeof(u32) ? \
DIV_ROUND_UP(dividend, divisor) : \
DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL(dividend, divisor));
Actually, I'm not even sure we care about the truncation that could
happen on an unsigned long long -> unsigned long cast because the
delays we express here will anyway be hundreds of nanosecs/millisecs,
so nothing close to the billions of nanosecs/millisecs you can express
with an unsigned long.
So, maybe we should just do:
(unsigned long)(sizeof(dividend) == sizeof(u32) ? \
DIV_ROUND_UP(dividend, divisor) : \
DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL(dividend, divisor));
to make things more readable.
