Can you elaborate further? I am not sure how this will work since delay is a 
timespec 
and elapsed time is an instr_time. 

Also, in every iteration of the loop, the delay must be set to the remaining 
time. The
purpose of the elapsed_time is to make sure that we don’t surpass requested time
delay as an additional safeguard.

I will elaborate further in the comments for the next revision.
