Since commit 5b18b5a737 ("block: delete part_round_stats and switch to
less precise counting") io_ticks is approximated by adding one at each
start and end of requests if jiffies has changed.
This works perfectly for requests shorter than a jiffy. If requests runs
more than 2 jiffies some I/O time will not be accounted unless there are
other reuqests.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
