Ah, right, it only shows up on 32-bit architectures that use the
generic do_div implementation.  To see the warning on x86, you'd need
to do something like this:

$ git --no-pager diff
$ touch fs/cifs/netmisc.c
$ make ARCH=x86 vmlinux
  CHK     include/config/kernel.release
  CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
