ethtool: time to blink provided in seconds not jiffies
When blinking for a duration set by the user, the value specified is in seconds but it is used as the number of jiffies in the timeout after which the Physical ID indicator is deactivated. Fix by converting the timeout to seconds. Signed-off-by: Bruce Allan <bruce.w.allan@intel.com> Acked-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
