Avoid 64-bit integer division that 32-bit architectures don't
implement generally. This uses ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms()
instead.
The time abstraction needs i64 / u32 division so C's div_s64() can be
used but ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms() provide a simpler solution
for this time abstraction problem on 32-bit architectures.
32-bit ARM is the only 32-bit architecture currently supported by
Rust. Using the cfg attribute, only 32-bit architectures will call
ktime_to_us() and ktime_to_ms(), while the other 64-bit architectures
will continue to use the current code as-is to avoid the overhead.
One downside of calling the C's functions is that the as_micros/millis
methods can no longer be const fn. We stick with the simpler approach
unless there's a compelling need for a const fn.

v2:
- fix the helper to call ktime_to_[us|ms]
- use cfg to avoid calling ktime_to_[us|ms] on 64-bit archs
- update the commit message
