New Revision: 239915
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/239915

Log:
  MFC 238424:
  Make the interval timings for EVFILT_TIMER more accurate.  tvtohz() always
  adds an extra tick to account for the current partial clock tick.  However,
  that is not appropriate for a repeating timer when the exact tvtohz() value
  should be used for subsequent intervals.  Fix repeating callouts for
  EVFILT_TIMER by subtracting 1 tick from the tvtohz() result similar to the
  fix used in realitexpire() for interval timers.
  
  While here, update a few comments to note that if the EVFILT_TIMER code
  were to move out of kern_event.c, it should move to kern_time.c (where the
  interval timer code it mimics lives) rather than kern_timeout.c.
