I didn't smoke when I started diving, four years later I started smoking and diving, I quit for two years then started again and FINALLY quit for good 28 years ago. If I hadn't I might not be diving today.
I think it will depend on where in the country (or world) you are. Most California divers I know don't smoke, many midwesterners and Easterners seem to. I met lots of divers and instructors from Europe who smoke.
If you want to dive into your golden years (am I there yet?), I'd certainly recommend stopping!
