API compliance scanning with coccinelle flagged: ./drivers/net/wan/dscc4.c:1036:1-33: WARNING: timeout (10) seems HZ dependent ./drivers/net/wan/dscc4.c:554:2-34: WARNING: timeout (10) seems HZ dependent ./drivers/net/wan/dscc4.c:599:2-34: WARNING: timeout (10) seems HZ dependent
Numeric constants passed to schedule_timeout_*() make the effective timeout HZ dependent which does not seem to be the intent here. Fixed up by converting the constant to jiffies with msecs_to_jiffies(), passing 100ms (assuming HZ==100 in the original code). Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hof...@osadl.org> --- V2: As the intended timeout is not documented and msecs_to_jiffies(10) may be a factor 10 off from constant 10, the value is transformed assuming HZ=100 to be on the safe side as suggested by David Miller <da...@davemloft.net> to minimize the probability of breaking this old code.
