The expression htotal * vtotal can have a zero value on

I'm not sure if those always results in zero in kernel on overflow.
Might be architecture-depended too, but let's assume it
can become zero, ....
It is necessary to prevent division by zero like in
fb_var_to_videomode().

why don't you then simply check for

Maybe use
if (htotal && vtotal && (vm->pixelclock / htotal >= vtotal))
for the test. That rules out overflowing multiplication and sets
refresh to 0 in such cases.
This prevents overflow, which is also a problematic case.
I don't like adding another division here and I doubt we have
a problem with possible overflow.
So, I suggest to keep it simple, something like:
...
total = htotal * vtotal;
if (total)
fbmode->refresh = vm->pixelclock / total;
else...
