To allow constant folding in usecs_to_jiffies() conditionally calls the HZ dependent _usecs_to_jiffies() helpers or, when gcc can not figure out constant folding, __usecs_to_jiffies, which is the renamed original usecs_to_jiffies() function.
Patch was build tested for: arm - imx_v6_v7_defconfig, vexpress_defconfig cris - etrax-100lx_v2_defconfig ia64 - generic_defconfig (though with lots of build warnings both with and without patch) m68k - multi_defconfig mips32 - ar7_defconfig, mips64 - loongson3_defconfig powerpc - 44x/virtex5_defconfig powerpc64 - ppc64_defconfig s390 - failed to build for all defconfigs with toolchain from kernel.org (cc1: error: unrecognized command line option '-mtune=zEC12') sh - se7780_defconfig, sparc32 - sparc32_defconfig sparc64 - sparc64_defconfig x86 64 - x86_64_defconfig, patch is against 4.1-rc5 (localversion-next is -next-20150527) Link: http://lkml.org/lkml/2015/5/18/274 Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hof...@osadl.org> --- Thanks to Joe Perches <j...@perches.com> for suggesting this approach. and helping with the initial msecs_to_jiffies cleanup patch.
