If SCSI people will approve it, yes. But as per discussion
with kib@ at that time of extending your patch, there should
be some general-purpose routine to convert milliseconds
to ticks, not the CAM-only stuff: some other drivers can
benefit from having it in-place. Moreover, the routine should
gracefully handle zero HZ as the result, probably, just adding
one as tvtohz() does.
I'll try to come up with the revised patch, but not instantly:
drowned with job at $WORK, so this will take some days.
