This note should be before Hannes SoB. E.g:

[John] Fixed checkpatch warnings and updated MAINTAINERS.

Using microseconds forces you to do costly multiplications and divisions by
1000. Why not keep things in nanoseconds ?

No need for this else.

Missing the curly brackets around the else block.
Nit: n is a rather unusual name for a loop index. Why not the usual "i" ? Does
notmatter much though.

See comment at the top. Why not keep everything in nanoseconds to avoid this
costly division ?
