[PATCH] hpet: Optimize local variable data type in hpet_alloc()

[Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@toblux.com>]

The local variable period uses at most 32 bits and can be a u32 instead
of unsigned long. The upper 32 bits are all 0 after masking and right
shifting cap by HPET_COUNTER_CLK_PERIOD_SHIFT and can be discarded.

Since do_div() casts the divisor to u32 anyway, changing the data type
of period to u32 also removes the following Coccinelle/coccicheck
warning reported by do_div.cocci:

  WARNING: do_div() does a 64-by-32 division, please consider using div64_ul instead
