From 01cd08192040eab30f837f061ca07f43cf15f4a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arjan van de Ven Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 12:42:56 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] USB: Patch to align the various USB timers to fire at the same time This patch modifies the USB regular 250ms timer to be "perfectly aligned" to the second and quarters thereof. This change is there to make sure that if you have multiple USB ports, the timers for all these ports will fire at the same time rather than all spread out. All spread out wakes the CPU up from power saving idle a lot more than needed...
