Jakob, this is not some complex function, this is a macro.
I agree on using stdlib-functions in most cases, but here, using CEIL
over ceilf is obvious:
We want to use the value directly as an integer, whereas ceilf returns
a float.
Reat Marttin's implementation to see why our solution is superior and a
not form of NiH.
