I noticed that ns_to_timespec64() calls div_s64_rem(), which is
a rather slow function on 32-bit architectures, as it cannot take
advantage of the do_div() optimizations for constant arguments.

This open-codes the div_s64_rem() function here, so we can pass
a constant divider into the optimized div_u64_rem() function.

The arithmetic looks right to me.
