  31/* Since jiffies uses a simple TICK_NSEC multiplier
  32 * conversion, the .shift value could be zero. However
  33 * this would make NTP adjustments impossible as they are
  34 * in units of 1/2^.shift. Thus we use JIFFIES_SHIFT to
  35 * shift both the nominator and denominator the same
  36 * amount, and give ntp adjustments in units of 1/2^8
  37 *
  38 * The value 8 is somewhat carefully chosen, as anything
  39 * larger can result in overflows. TICK_NSEC grows as HZ
  40 * shrinks, so values greater than 8 overflow 32bits when
  41 * HZ=100.
