Actually, I don't think I understand the purpose of this timeout at all. I had thought it was to make some effort to adjust the timeout values if the system clock gets set backwards (related to timeout_correct()). But for that to make any sense, it'd have to be a limit on the time to wait when there are longer timeouts. Instead, it's a time to wait when there's no timeout scheduled at all. I don't think it accomplishes anything. Maybe the default timeout should be removed entirely, not just if a monotonic clock is available?
