We are adjusting timestamp with interrupt every time, leading to a lot of jitter in timestamp values. Now the adjustment is done only when the delta is bigger than the jitter.
Refactorize code and delete the unnecessary handling of multiple FIFO data.

Hmm. Whilst this may be an improvement, I'm not totally convinced it's something we should backport.
Also, there are a lot of possible solutions to this and I'm not sure why or if this is the best option.
Perhaps a simple filter on the jitter adjustment to smooth it out? Something as simple as adjusting by only 10% of the measured difference if it is small might work for example. Or carry a moving window of recently measured jitter and apply some sort of filtering to that. Perhaps that would incorporate a 'reset' approach if the measurement is way off to allow faster correction if something has gone wrong.
Hence, I'd like more discussion of why this solution in the patch description.
