ktime_sub is defined in include/linux/ktime.h - the file only contains generic
definitions, everything is in nanoseconds, struct timeval, or struct timespec.

The other place is include/linux/skbuff.h, where net_timedelta() is defined. 
This is probably due to the skb->tstamp field - as a utility function to be 
used 
with skbs.

Neither place seems appropriate for above function, it is more specific than 
the 
ones in ktime.h. I am at a loss where else if not the DCCP code, where it is
specifically used, to place it. 

The name was chosen for consistency with timeval_delta(), which is the current
function for microsecond time differences in net/dccp/dccp.h.
