The calculation:
val = (u64)NSEC_PER_SEC * LPC18XX_PWM_TIMER_MAX;
do_div(val, lpc18xx_pwm->clk_rate);
lpc18xx_pwm->max_period_ns = val;
is bogus because with NSEC_PER_SEC = 1000000000,
LPC18XX_PWM_TIMER_MAX = 0xffffffff and clk_rate < NSEC_PER_SEC this
overflows the (on lpc18xx (i.e. ARM32) 32 bit wide) unsigned int
.max_period_ns. This results (dependant of the actual clk rate) in an
arbitrary limitation of the maximal period. E.g. for clkrate =
333333333 (Hz) we get max_period_ns = 9 instead of 12884901897.
So make .max_period_ns an u64 and pass period and duty as u64 to not
discard relevant digits. And also make use of mul_u64_u64_div_u64()
which prevents all overflows assuming clk_rate < NSEC_PER_SEC.

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.
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.
