Could you add a comment as to what the function does, and use some
better variable names here to make it more immediately obvious what is
being done here?
Something like:
/**
* ktime_roundup - Rounds value up to interval chunk
* @ value: Value to be rounded up
* @ interval: interval size to round up to
*
* Rounds a value up to the next higher multiple of an interval size
*/
static inline ktime ktime_roundup(ktime_t value, ktime_t interval)
thanks
