[PATCH 1/2] staging: rtl8712: cleanup of timeout conversions

From: Nicholas Mc Guire
Date: Sat Jan 31 2015 - 06:00:27 EST


This is only an API consolidation to make things more readable.
Instances of var * HZ / 1000 are replaced by msecs_to_jiffies(var).
As msecs_to_jiffies will return > 0 if it is passed a value > 0 the
== 0 check is not needed.

Converting milliseconds to jiffies by "val * HZ / 1000" is technically
ok but msecs_to_jiffies(val) is the cleaner solution and handles all
corner cases correctly. This is a minor API cleanup only.

As msecs_to_jiffies will not return at least 1 (unless 0 is passed as
argument) the check for delta == 0 is not needed here.

This patch was only compile tested for x86_64_defconfig +
CONFIG_STAGING=y, CONFIG_R8712U=m

This patch is against 3.0.19-rc6 -next-20150129
