ktime: Optimize ktime_divns for constant divisors
[ Upstream commit 8b618628b2bf83512fc8df5e8672619d65adfdfb ] At least on ARM, do_div() is optimized to turn constant divisors into an inline multiplication by the reciprocal value at compile time. However this optimization is missed entirely whenever ktime_divns() is used and the slow out-of-line division code is used all the time. Let ktime_divns() use do_div() inline whenever the divisor is constant and small enough. This will make things like ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms() much faster.
