cfq-iosched: Convert from jiffies to nanoseconds
Convert all time-keeping in CFQ IO scheduler from jiffies to nanoseconds so that we can later make the intervals more fine-grained than jiffies. One jiffie is several miliseconds and even for today's rotating disks that is a noticeable amount of time and thus we leave disk unnecessarily idle.
