[PATCH 4/9] select: Micro-optimise __estimate_accuracy()

From: Dmitry Safonov
Date: Mon Sep 09 2019 - 06:23:54 EST


Shift on s64 is faster than division, use it instead.

As the result of the patch there is a hardly user-visible effect:
poll(), select(), etc syscalls will be a bit more precise on ~2.3%
than before because 1000 != 1024 :)
