16  * This optimization for A/B is helpful if the divisor B is mostly
17  * runtime invariant. The reciprocal of B is calculated in the
18  * slow-path with reciprocal_value(). The fast-path can then just use
19  * a much faster multiplication operation with a variable dividend A
20  * to calculate the division A/B.

46  * described in Figure 4.2 of the paper except when "divisor > (1U << 31)" whose
47  * ceil(log2(d)) result will be 32 which then requires u128 divide on host. The
48  * exception case could be easily handled before calling "reciprocal_value_adv".
49  *
50  * The advanced version requires more complex calculation to get the reciprocal
51  * multiplier and other control variables, but then could reduce the required
52  * emulation operations.
53  *
54  * It makes no sense to use this advanced version for host divide emulation,
55  * those extra complexities for calculating multiplier etc could completely
56  * waive our saving on emulation operations.
57  *
58  * However, it makes sense to use it for JIT divide code generation for which
59  * we are willing to trade performance of JITed code with that of host. As shown
60  * by the following pseudo code, the required emulation operations could go down
61  * from 6 (the basic version) to 3 or 4.

67  *   u8 pre_shift, exp;
68  *
69  *   // handle exception case.

72  *     return;
73  *   }

75  *   rvalue = reciprocal_value_adv(d, 32)
76  *   exp = rvalue.exp;
77  *   if (rvalue.is_wide_m && !(d & 1)) {
78  *     // floor(log2(d & (2^32 -d)))
79  *     pre_shift = fls(d & -d) - 1;
80  *     rvalue = reciprocal_value_adv(d >> pre_shift, 32 - pre_shift);
81  *   } else {
82  *     pre_shift = 0;
83  *   }

85  *   // code generation starts.

89  *     // pre_shift must be zero when reached here.
90  *     t = (n * rvalue.m) >> 32;
