[PATCH 2/2] Block: use round_jiffies_up()

From: Alan Stern
Date: Tue Nov 04 2008 - 11:16:02 EST


This patch (as1159) changes the timeout routines in the block core to
use round_jiffies_up(). There's no point in rounding the timer
deadline down, since if it expires too early we will have to restart
it.

The patch also removes a redundant test of q->rq_timed_out_fn, and it
sets req->deadline back to 0 when req is removed from the timer list
(to indicate the req is no longer being timed).
