llabs
The note indicates what to do, Rework to use the function 'llabs()'.

Thanks for the patch!

I wonder why tools/testing/selftests/timers/adjtick.c redefines llabs
when it already includes stdlib.h, and how that doesn't result in some
kind of compiler diagnostic.
Hmm. The define in /usr/include/stdlib.h is under #ifdef __USE_ISOC99
Maybe be that explains the reason for the definitions in the other two
timers file?
Anders, I would like to understand this before I take this patch. I see
you sent several patches to other tests as well. Would be useful at
least understand why these defines exist.
thanks,
