Subject: [PATCH 01/36] jiffies: Reuse TICK_NSEC instead of NSEC_PER_JIFFY
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2016 19:08:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1479406123-24785-2-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1479406123-24785-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com>

NSEC_PER_JIFFY is an ad-hoc redefinition of TICK_NSEC. Let's rather
use a unique and well maintained version.
