[PATCH 9/9] cpufreq: governor: Use microseconds in sample delay computations

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Sun Feb 14 2016 - 20:23:03 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Do not convert microseconds to jiffies and the other way around
in governor computations related to the sampling rate and sample
delay and drop delay_for_sampling_rate() which isn't of any use
then.
