do_div() does a 64-by-32 division. Here the divisor is an unsigned long
which on some platforms is 64 bit wide. So use div64_ul instead of do_div
to avoid a possible truncation.

You could change this_tsc_khz to u32 instead, it's assigned from a 
32-bit value.

Using div64_ul would be unnecessary and less efficient.
