ohci : strange looking use of round_jiffies_relative. possible bug?

I was looking at the uses of round_jiffies and noticed that the ohci
unlink_watchdog_func() calls
mod_timer(&ohci->unlink_watchdog, round_jiffies_relative(HZ));

Which looks a bit strange as it will set the timer to 0 <= t < HZ.
Reading the comments I think that is really is expecting to setup timer
to (now + 1s)

mod_timer(&ohci->unlink_watchdog, round_jiffies(jiffies + HZ));

If this is not true then perhaps it needs a comment to explain what it
_is_ trying to do, because it's got me baffled ;)


Cheers
Richard
