Defines type aliases and conversions for msecs and jiffies. This is used by Rust Binder for process freezing. There, we want to sleep until the freeze operation completes, but we want to be able to abort the process freezing if it doesn't complete within some timeout. The freeze timeout is supplied in msecs. Note that we need to convert to jiffies in Binder. It is not enough to introduce a variant of `CondVar::wait_timeout` that takes the timeout in msecs because we need to be able to restart the sleep with the remaining sleep duration if it is interrupted, and if the API takes msecs rather than jiffies, then that would require a conversion roundtrip jiffies-> msecs->jiffies that is best avoided.
