Sorry about not catching the interaction between dynset and traditional
sets.
I believe that updating elements in dynsets can happen much more
frequently than interactions with userspace. One of my own use cases is
traffic accounting via flow tables, where there will be many updates
per second. So I would much prefer to do the conversion between msec
and jiffies, when data are sent to or received from userspace.
Would the patch below be okay?
