    current 2.4 has no ssleep() nor jiffies_to_usecs() nor jiffies_to_msecs()
    users. so no namespace conflicts on them.

    i found a strange unsupported "msleep" syscall in
    ./arch/parisc/hpux/sys_hpux.c

    left this one appart, i resend the msleep patch + 5 cleanup patches.
    they remove duplicate msleep() or msecs_to_jiffies() definitions.
    they are all compile tested, but the one touching drivers/char/shwdt.c
    please show me if i forgot something.
