Thanks for pointing this out! The following patch is better I think
because it uses the time_after() abstraction. I will be folding the
following into Zheng's "ext4: improve extent cache shrink > mechanism
to avoid to burn CPU time".
I've desk checked this but we may want to do some explicit testing to
make sure we are in fact ejecting the appropriate inode from the list.
