Subject: cfq: fix possible problem with jiffies wraparound
Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2009 19:09:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200910041909.08282.czoccolo@gmail.com> (raw)

The RR service tree is indexed by a key that is relative to current jiffies.
This can cause problems on jiffies wraparound.

The patch fixes it using time_before comparison, and changing
the add_front path to use a relative number, too.
