Yea. This looks much nicer. Seems generic enough it might be better
added next to nsec_to_jiffies64() in kernel/time/time.c or jiffies.h
rather then in a driver header.

And clearly the header comment in nsec_to_jiffies() warning its only
for the scheduler and not for use for drivers (for exactly the reason
of this patch) are not obvious/memorable enough for me and Thomas
makes me wonder if we should change its name to be more clear that its
a sched only function.
