The patch

   spi: bcm2835aux: Avoid 64-bit arithmetic in xfer len calc

has been applied to the spi tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

We want to check for xfers that are over 30 microseconds.  Rather than
find how many µs a xfer will take, instead find how many bytes can be
transferred in 30 µs.  The latter must be less than 32 bits (since our
clock speed is limited to 32 bits), while the former involves 64 bit
quantities and more arithmetic operations.
