Subject[RESEND][PATCH] better compat_jiffies_to_clock_t
Hi Linus,

[Resent because it hasn't truned up yet and I haven't had any
opposition.]

At David Mosberger's suggestion can we use this new version of
compat_jiffies_to_clock_t?  It does better rounding and will not fail
if COMPAT_USER_HZ > HZ.
Please apply.
