# Which issue does this PR close? <!--- We generally require a GitHub issue to be filed for all bug fixes and enhancements and this helps us generate change logs for our releases. You can link an issue to this PR using the GitHub syntax. For example `Closes #123` indicates that this PR will close issue #123. --> Removes explicit simd arithmetic kernels, except for division/modulo, as compiler autovectorization actually generates better code. Also adds a new `divide_unchecked` kernel for floating point division, which does not need to return an error for division by zero. [Benchmark results on my laptop](https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/1182#issuecomment-1013669825) Closes #1182. # Rationale for this change Simplifies the code and increases performance at the same time. # What changes are included in this PR? <!--- There is no need to duplicate the description in the issue here but it is sometimes worth providing a summary of the individual changes in this PR. --> # Are there any user-facing changes? No. `ArrowFloatNumericType::pow` is now unused though and could be removed. The trait should be kept since some kernels might make only sense on floating point data. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
