[PATCH] pwm: ipq: prevent potential 32-bit integer overflow in hi_div calculation

From: kr494167

Date: Fri Jul 24 2026 - 00:51:43 EST


From: Surendra Singh Chouhan <kr494167@xxxxxxxxx>

In ipq_pwm_get_state(), hi_div was calculated as:
hi_div = hi_dur * (pre_div + 1);

hi_dur and (pre_div + 1) are both unsigned int (32-bit) values.
Evaluating their multiplication using 32-bit arithmetic before assigning to
the 64-bit u64 hi_div variable can overflow 32-bit unsigned math.

While effective_div explicitly uses (u64)(pwm_div + 1) * (pre_div + 1) to
prevent overflow, hi_div was missing the (u64) cast.

Fix this by casting hi_dur to (u64) before multiplication, matching the
precision used for effective_div.
