Cosmin Tanislav c0b1da281d media: rc: ir-spi: avoid overflow in multiplication
Switch to u64 arithmetic and use DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST_ULL() to avoid
the overflow.

buffer[i] is unsigned int and is limited by the lirc core to
IR_MAX_DURATION, which is 500000.

idata->freq is u32, which has a max value of 0xFFFFFFFF.

In the case where buffer[i] is 500000, idata->freq overflows the u32
multiplication for any values >= 8590.

0xFFFFFFFF / 500000 ~= 8589

By casting buffer[i] to u64, idata->freq can be any u32 value without
overflowing the multiplication.

0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF / 500000 ~= 36893488147419 (> 4294967295)

The result of the final operation will fit back into the unsigned int
limits without any issues.

500000 * 0xFFFFFFFF / 1000000 = 0x80000000 (< 0xFFFFFFFF)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
