From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> The comment preceding background_sleep() is wrong -- the function sleeps 100us, not 100ms, for every '-b' passed in after the first one. This is really not obvious from the magic numbers, so fix the comment and use symbolic constants for easier reading. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
