Hmm, sure, but why go through "msecs" at all?

iow, why not

        #define cputime_to_secs(jif)    ((jif) / HZ)
        #define secs_to_cputime(sec)    ((sec) * HZ)

which avoids double rounding issues etc.

Not to mention that "secs_to_cputime()" lacks the proper parenthesis.

More signers-off-on-this-thing added.
