Speed up
_fmpz_vec_scalar_divexact_si
,_fmpz_vec_scalar_divexact_ui
and small-divisor_fmpz_vec_scalar_divexact_fmpz
by precomputing an inverse mod2^FLINT_BITS
. Also special case powers of two.This probably will not make a measurable difference on any macrobenchmarks, because the standard use case is to divide out a GCD which was more expensive to compute in the first place. However, I thought I'd put this code in as a template for doing divexact with precomputed inverses; other functions like
fmpz_mat_fflu
and_fmpz_poly_interpolate_exact_newton
could use the same trick in the future.Multi-limb preinverted divexact should also be done some day but it's a lot more work.
