From: Johannes Berg <redacted> There's no reason to use ktime_get() since we don't need any better precision than jiffies, and since we no longer disable interrupts around this code (when grabbing NIC access), jiffies will work fine. Use jiffies instead of ktime_get(). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <redacted> Signed-off-by: Luca Coelho <redacted>What bug does this fix? After reading the commit log to me this looks like more like cleanup and is better for -next.Ah, this is a dependency for patch 12. I'll mention this in the commit log, but please correct me if I have misunderstood.
Yes, you're right! It's a dependency and I thought it would be simpler and cause less conflicts if I just took it too instead of sending them via different trees. -- Cheers, Luca.
