Subject: [PATCH 2/5] ipv6: use round_jiffies
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2008 14:29:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080722212951.629007462@vyatta.com> (raw)

This timer normally happens once a minute, there is no need to cause an
early wakeup for it, so align it to next second boundary to safe power.
It can't be deferred because then it could take too long on cleanup or DoS.
