- * This file describes reciprocical division.
- *
- * This optimizes the (A/B) problem, when A and B are two u32
- * and B is a known value (but not known at compile time)
- *
- * The math principle used is :
- * Let RECIPROCAL_VALUE(B) be (((1LL << 32) + (B - 1))/ B)
- * Then A / B = (u32)(((u64)(A) * (R)) >> 32)
- *
- * This replaces a divide by a multiply (and a shift), and
- * is generally less expensive in CPU cycles.

- * Computes the reciprocal value (R) for the value B of the divisor.
- * Should not be called before each reciprocal_divide(),
- * or else the performance is slower than a normal divide.
