8-bit value scaled by n-bit fraction

I have a lookup table with 4-bit numbers m=0..15. A value t should be scaled according to theese numbers, so that

s = t * m/16

Rather than using 16-bit multiplication followed by s>>4,
I found a much faster code.
As can be seen, the code can be carried out for e.g. 7-bit m-values as well.

CODE
clrf s
movf t, W

bcf STATUS, C
btfsc m, 0
addwf s, F
rrf s, F

bcf STATUS, C
btfsc m, 1
addwf s, F
rrf s, F

bcf STATUS, C
btfsc m, 2
addwf s, F
rrf s, F

bcf STATUS, C
btfsc m, 3
addwf s, F
rrf s, F

btfsc STATUS, C
incf s, F ;nearest value
