Its safer to convert btcoex_period to 'us' while
comparing with btcoex_no_stomp which is in 'us'.
Did not find any functionality issues being fixed,
as the generic hardware timer triggers are usually
refreshed with the newer duty cycle.

In which way it is safer? What does the patch fix? It was intentionally
converted to msec by "ath9k: keep btcoex period in milliseconds".

we got btcoex_period is in 'us' while 'btcoex_no_stomp' in 'ms'
when we are going to compare , both of them had to been in same time
units. Rather then mentioning it as 'safer' the commit log should say
its 'more correct' :-)  previously the comparison happened with same
timeunits(ms).

I could not find any functionality issue being fixed,
but i saw the difference, when putting debug prints for
btcoex->btcoex_period, btcoex->btcoex_no_stomp), there was so
much difference. Yet the check itself

         if (btcoex->btcoex_period != btcoex->btcoex_no_stomp)

seems to be true for almost all the cases. So fine with changing the
commit log ?

thanks a lot for the review!

Oops. Its a regression. Can you please include the commit "ath9k: keep btcoex
period in milliseconds" that causes this regression in your commit log.


sure Raj, i would do it, it did not make any difference :-)
the h/w timers are usually stopped and started.
again, thanks for you kind review!
