Commit b35108a51cf7 ("jiffies: Define secs_to_jiffies()") introduced
secs_to_jiffies(). As the value here is a multiple of 1000, use
secs_to_jiffies() instead of msecs_to_jiffies to avoid the multiplication.
This is converted using scripts/coccinelle/misc/secs_to_jiffies.cocci with

While here, replace the schedule_delayed_work() call with a 0 timeout
with an immediate schedule_work() call.

Is it safe to use schedule_work() for struct delayed_work?
Should be, but you are right it should then be a standard work not a
delayed work.
So probably the easiest is to keep
schedule_delayed_work(&work, 0)
And eventually changing it to a not delayed work could be a follow-up patch.
It might work in theory but I do not feel comfortable with it.
Also I would expect a compiler warning.
__queue_delayed_work() does :
if (!delay) {
__queue_work(cpu, wq, &dwork->work);
return;
}
If you really want to use schedule_work() then please
also define the structure with DECLARE_WORK()
and use cancel_work_sync() in livepatch_callbacks_mod_exit().
