Subject: timeconst.pl: correct reversal of USEC_TO_HZ and HZ_TO_USEC
From: "H. Peter Anvin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The USEC_TO_HZ and HZ_TO_USEC constant sets were mislabelled, with
seriously incorrect results. This among other things manifested itself as
cpufreq not working when a tickless kernel was configured.
