I'll trust that you tested this with a scope

Given the bug I just fixed in the Rockchip SPI driver, I was a little
worried about div becoming -1 (and thus being a really large positive
number since div is unsigned).

However, it seems that you get saved by the next statement:
div = DIV_ROUND_UP(div, 2);

In the testing I did with the Linux macros, that magically transformed
a div of 0xFFFFFFFF (-1) to 0, so it's not technically a bug. ...but
it's very non-obvious. Can you do something a little cleaner?
