Please make that

       unsigned long end = jiffies + 4;

ticks really means: number of ticks. But that variable is doing something
different.

um, I see. Will use 'end' instead.

Please sort variables in reverse fir tree order

        unsigned long end = jiffies + 4;
        int band = 1;


OK, I will.

Got it!

Thanks,

        dou.


+       } while (band < 12 && time_before_eq(jiffies, ticks + 4));

Thanks,
