This is really non-obvious, both by itself, in where/how it causes the division by 0 and that the error here isn't worse than the division by 0 for example, and why this constant was chosen.
Also why a division and not a multiply by the inverse?
Why not * (1.0f / (1 << 24)) for example, which for single-precision IEEE I think should result in exactly 1 ULP (well, possibly 2 with rounding) increments?
Why is this even using floating-point? And why not double-precision at least?

division by 0 occured in:
*dst++ = ((t - header.data_min) * ((1 << (sizeof(type) * 8)) - 1)) / (header.data_max - header.data_min); \


> Also why a division and not a multiply by the inverse?

no reason, this could be changed


> Why not * (1.0f / (1 << 24)) for example, which for single-precision IEEE I think should result in exactly 1 ULP (well, possibly 2 with rounding) increments?

the division by 0 could occur with files which contain only one color. Or
otherwise corrupted / odd files.
what the code tries to do is to do a reasonable small change away from division
by 0. 
The way the whole implementation of fits is done is to scale the input range
to the output range. If the input is 0 as it can be on a constant color input
this hits a singularity. As this is basically a 0/0 anything could be output
and would be equally wrong so the exact value like / 10000000 or other dont
really matter.
For these values to matter, first how the decoder interprets data would have
to be changed:
" Also to interpret data, values are linearly scaled using min-max scaling but not RGB images."

I looked at the code, and now it makes even less sense to me.
First, why is that reported as an error at all?
Dividing by 0 is well defined for floating-point.
Next, your patch handles only one corner-case while not handling others.
For example, data_min and data_max can also be inf or NaN, which equally make no sense (and result in a division by NaN, which can hardly be better than a division by 0).
Next, bzero is applied to data_min and data_max which can cause precision issues, so it's a bit questionable but maybe non-trivial to fix completely.
However as data_max is never used but only the delta, most of these issues can be fixed much more thoroughly (and improve performance) by calculating and storing only that delta, and before applying bzero. Then delta can simply be overridden to 1 if it is fishy (not a normal or 0).
Of course there is a question if values above data_max are supposed to result in output > 1 or be clamped, but I guess that issue can be ignored.
As the code pays no particular attention to precision issue it would also be a question if calculating the inverse and use multiplications instead of divisions would make sense, but that admittedly is just an optimization.

at least at the point where its stored in an integer it becomes painfull
to the compiler to find a way to do it.

Iam not sure if inf is a problem (from a very quick look) that would get
divided to 0 i guess nan would be an issue, i didnt think of this, i will 
redo this and post a better patch

Hm, I am not quite following. The division results in inf or nan, and those get converted to integer the usual way (not sure how well that is defined in C, but it's not a division by 0 error).

inf / inf = nan
From my point of view if 0.0 / 0.0 is considered an issue that seems like it should apply for inf as well.
When it comes to actually correct code, there might also be the question what to do in that case.
Could be considered "bad data/normalization range, just skip the whole scaling".
Or could define it like OpenGL (and other) normalization operations:
-inf becomes -1, inf becomes 1 all else 0. But that would need a special code case, and I guess it's not worth it.
