  30/* The Jiffies based clocksource is the lowest common
  31 * denominator clock source which should function on
  32 * all systems. It has the same coarse resolution as
  33 * the timer interrupt frequency HZ and it suffers
  34 * inaccuracies caused by missed or lost timer
  35 * interrupts and the inability for the timer
  36 * interrupt hardware to accuratly tick at the
  37 * requested HZ value. It is also not recommended
  38 * for "tick-less" systems.

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