From 9e04d3804d3ac97d8c03a41d78d0f0674b5d01e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bart Van Assche Date: Tue, 21 May 2013 20:43:50 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] timer: Fix jiffies wrap behavior of round_jiffies_common() Direct compare of jiffies related values does not work in the wrap around case. Replace it with time_is_after_jiffies().
