Concerning the bool for 'use_irq': I first had it that way but then opted for the bit field of length 1 as I wasn't sure whether bool would get optimized to the same level by the compiler. I'm a bit irritated by your comment concerning the msecs_to_jiffies() call, as my patch indeed moves this call from the #define to the code. Did you mean it the other way round, then? My reason to move it was that I need to work with microseconds for the IRQ-less operation mode, and jiffies are only required in one place for the IRQ mode.
