49 * happened first or timer_value was read first. And some asynchronous
50 * event can happen between these two events introducing errors in lpj.
52 * So, we do

55 * 3. start <- timer value before or after jiffy switch
56 * 4. post_start <- When we are sure that jiffy switch has happened
58 * Note, we don't know anything about order of 2 and 3.
59 * Now, by looking at post_start and pre_start difference, we can
60 * check whether any asynchronous event happened or not
