I don't think we need to clamp to FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ. If the user
sets a timeout value lower than FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ (15 secs), imo
that should be supported. For example, if the user sets the timeout to
10 seconds, then the connection should be aborted if the request takes
13 seconds. I don't see why we need to have the min bound be
FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ. imo, the user-specified timeout value and
FUSE_TIMEOUT_TIMER_FREQ value are orthogonal. But I also don't feel
strongly about this and am fine with whichever way we go.

Thanks,
Joanne
