Since the PWM framework is switching struct pwm_args.period's datatype
to u64, prepare for this transition by typecasting it to u32.

Also, since the dividend is still a 32-bit number, any divisor greater
than UINT_MAX will cause the quotient to be zero, so return 0 in that
case to efficiently skip the division.

The stated aim of adding the if condition is to determine when the
division operation may be skipped as the quotient would be zero anyway
[1]. That said, I think the current if condition is incorrect. The
quotient would be zero only when the denominator of the division exceeds
(v * 0xf) and not UINT_MAX. In fact, UINT_MAX has no bearing on whether
the quotient becomes zero or not.

Therefore, the correct if condition should be:

-       return DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(v * 0xf, pwm->args.period);
+       if ((u32)pwm->args.period > (v * 0xf))
+               return 0;
+
+       return DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(v * 0xf, (u32)pwm->args.period);

What do you think?
