Sending once again as a correct reply. I am sorry for the
confusion. I think that it is high time for me to go home and sleep :-)

I wondered if the deduction might be negative. Well, it should not be
if none manipulates *caller_jiffies in a strange way. If it happens,
the following condition will most likely fail and *caller_jiffies will
get reset to jiffies. It looks reasonable to me.
