That's a nonsensical thing, because HZ is already in jiffies. Presumably it's meant to be a 6s timeout, not a 0.6/1.5/1.8/6 second timeout (depending on HZ). Because this is a behaviour change, it needs testing by someone with the relevant hardware. There's a second, minor fix: in arcmsr_set_iop_datetime(), let msecs_to_jiffies() be evaluated at compile time. That section of code deserves two levels of attention from someone who understands what it's doing. First, you might might want to reword that whole thing in terms of HZ. And the constant names are confusing. ARCMSR_MINUTES is 1 hour, while ARCMSR_HOURS is 4 hours. E.g. next_time = HZ * 60 * 60; /* 1 hour */ if (sys_tz.tz_minuteswest) next_time *= 4; mod_timer(&pacb->refresh_timer, jiffies + next_time);) Level two would be considering why there are two different timeouts depending on whether the time zone is GMT or not and whether that's really justified.
