hi,

i'm on a quest to get access to jiffies in user space so i can write a
simple stepper motor driver program. i co-opted the "#includes" list from alessandro rubini's jit.c file from "linux device drivers" to write
jfi.c.

That's not going to work, jiffies is an internal kernel value, you can't access it from userspace. What do you need jiffies for to do this?
