[PATCH BUGFIX V2 3/3] null_blk: change type of completion_nsec to unsigned long

From: Paolo Valente
Date: Tue Dec 01 2015 - 05:49:21 EST


From: Arianna Avanzini <avanzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

This commit at least doubles the maximum value for
completion_nsec. This helps in special cases where one wants/needs to
emulate an extremely slow I/O (for example to spot bugs).
