[PATCH 15/50] sched: numa: Correct adjustment of numa_scan_period

From: Mel Gorman
Date: Tue Sep 10 2013 - 05:32:54 EST


numa_scan_period is in milliseconds, not jiffies. Properly placed pages
slow the scanning rate but adding 10 jiffies to numa_scan_period means
that the rate scanning slows depends on HZ which is confusing. Get rid
of the jiffies_to_msec conversion and treat it as ms.
