Subject: [net] ptp: update adjfreq callback description
Date: Thu,  1 Nov 2012 15:30:16 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1351809016-29237-1-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> (raw)

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com>

This patch updates the adjfreq callback description to include a note that the
delta in ppb is always relative to the base frequency, and not to the current
frequency of the hardware clock.
