40 * conversion, the .shift value could be zero. However
41 * this would make NTP adjustments impossible as they are
42 * in units of 1/2^.shift. Thus we use JIFFIES_SHIFT to
43 * shift both the nominator and denominator the same
44 * amount, and give ntp adjustments in units of 1/2^8
45 *
46 * The value 8 is somewhat carefully chosen, as anything
47 * larger can result in overflows. NSEC_PER_JIFFY grows as
48 * HZ shrinks, so values greater then 8 overflow 32bits when
49 * HZ=100.
