Replace a division by 2 operation for a right shift rotation of 1 bit. Probably any recent and decent compiler does this kind of substitution in order to improve code performance. Nevertheless it's a coding good practice whenever there is a division / multiplication by multiple of 2 to replace it by the equivalent operation in this case, the shift rotation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
