Let's try again.

static inline u64 mult_frac64(u64 x, u32 numer, u32 denom) {
u64 rem = x % denom;
u64 quot = do_div(x, denom);
u64 mul = rem * numer;

return (quot * numer) + do_div(mul, denom);
}

First of all why not to put this to generic header? We have math64.h
and kernel.h.
Might be a good idea (needs to check current users) to move mult_frac
to math64.h.

Then, x % y is already a problem. After all, you seems messed quot and
remainder.

What about something like

#if BITS_PER_LONG == 64

#define mult_frac64(x,n,d) mult_frac(x,n,d)

#else

static inline u64 mult_frac64(u64 x, u32 numer, u32 denom) {
u64 r1 = do_div(x, denom);
u64 r2 = r1 * numer;

do_div(r2, denom);
return (x * numer) + r2;
}

I'll use this instead. This is cleaner, scalable and functionally correct to the original code. I'll post a patch with this soon.


#endif

?

One more look to the users of MULDIV.

They all seems 32 bit for x.
It means you don't need two do_div()s at all.

Just do something like:

u64 d = x * numer;
do_div(d, denom);
return d;
