+ * 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.
