I'd like to suggest changing the comment as follows   s/milli/micro/  ->
+ * Retrieves present time in microseconds that is compatible

so that the comment matches the math (millisecond = ms = 10^-3 s,
microsecond = us = 10^-6 s) and the function name "*_ust".

Sincerely,

Richard


OK, I'll fix it, but I will give it a few more days before sending out v2 of the patches to give others opportunity to comment. BTW, I now notice that the comment is actually wrong. The units are supposed to be microseconds. So, if it read like this would that address your concern:

/*
 * Retrieves present UST that is compatible with timestamps used for
 * vblank events. Depending on the kernel version and DRM kernel module
 * configuration, the vblank timestamp can either be real time or
 * monotonic.
 */

thanks,
