[ Upstream commit094bf4d0e9] The timecounter needs to be updated at least once per ~550 seconds in order to avoid a 40-bit SYSTIM timestamp to be misinterpreted as an old timestamp. Since commit500462a9d("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel"), scheduling of delayed work seems to be less accurate and a requested delay of 540 seconds may actually be longer than 550 seconds. Shorten the delay to 480 seconds to be sure the timecounter is updated in time. This fixes an issue with HW timestamps on 82580/I350/I354 being off by ~1100 seconds for few seconds every ~9 minutes.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
