The RR_TIMESLICE is currently defined as the jiffies corresponding to
100 msecs. And then sysctl_sched_rr_timeslice will convert RR_TIMESLICE
to 100 msecs. These are opposite calculations.
There are msecs_to_jiffies and jiffies_to_msecs in sched_rr_handler.
These are also opposite calculations.
Redefine RR_TIMESLICE to 100 msecs, only sched_rr_timeslice needs to
convert RR_TIMESLICE to jiffies.

Do we care? The compiler will do this at build time. What's wrong with the
current code?

Why? What's the difference if we do it in one place or another? The
calculations are done at compile time anyway. There's no performance
benefit by this change.

If anything, if this change is accepted, the above should be renamed to
RR_TIMESLICE_MS to explicitly state that they are in milliseconds.

So you are just moving calculations around that get done at compile time?

If anything, this patch may make this code easier to follow, but it's up to
Peter if he wants to take it or not.

Yes, two calculations may introduce rounding error like the following.

The current code requires two calculations, it only needs to be
calculated once after this patch.

It's a constant which avoids the rounding error in the calculation. Like
