Time conversion error in linux-2.6.11.10/net/sunrpoc/svcsock.c

Line 589 of linux-2.6.11.10/net/sunrpc/svcsock.c is obviously wrong:

skb->stamp.tv_usec = xtime.tv_nsec * 1000;

To convert nsec to usec, one should divide instead of multiplying:

skb->stamp.tv_usec = xtime.tv_nsec / 1000;

The same bug could be present in the latest kernels, although I haven't checked. This bug makes svc_udp_recvfrom() timestamps incorrect.

Sincerely,
Josip
