I want to apply this, but I'd like to ask you to fix a related
issue at the same time.  The jiffies reported to userspace by
this multicast code does not convert HZ to USER_HZ, just include
linux/times.h and use jiffies_to_clock_t().

We recently had to fix similar issues in other networking procfs
files.

Thanks David.
