static const ?

we really should kill ktime :/ Anyway, you now do two indirect timer
calls back to back :/

And this is unconditional overhead.

Computers _suck_ at /100. And since you're free to pick the constant,
pick a power of two, computers love those.

srsly!? Again, you can pick the constant to be anything, and you pick
such a horrid number?!

period was ktime_t, remember...

And these here lines all all waaay too long.

Also, is that complexity really needed?

Would not something simpler like the below also work?
