That looks buggy. Why the "_res = _tmp" there? All that does is to
truncate the result to "int", which looks bogus.
And it just looks unnecessarily complicated. Just a simple
#define DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL(ll,d) \
({ unsigned long long _tmp = (ll)+(d)-1; do_div(_tmp, d); _tmp; })
looks like it would work and be simpler. Avoid the conditional, do the
same "add 'd-1' thing as the regular ROUND_UP().
Untested. And not much thinking involved.
