Well, I almost wanted to answer that....implicitly, everything in
kernel that doesn't use timing mechanism such as HPET or RTC is under
the mercy of jiffy granularity :D

maybe the situation will change if somehow network stack switch to use
HPET... however, the cost of timer reprogramming is probably high.
