[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] app/eventdev: fix timeout accuracy

[pbhagavatula]

From: Pavan Nikhilesh <pbhagavat...@marvell.com>

Round timeout ticks when converting from nanoseconds, this prevents
loss of accuracy and deviation from requested timeout value.

Fixes: d008f20bce23 ("app/eventdev: add event timer adapter as a producer")
Cc: sta...@dpdk.org
