I can agree that I should have used ustosbt() instead of multiplication by
SBT_1US, but I don't agree with your original message that I changed the code
that correctly used the macros.

But again, I know the times being converted, they are fixed by the protocol and
I do not see why I have to use this:

static __inline sbintime_t
ustosbt(int64_t _us)
{
        sbintime_t sb = 0;

#ifdef KASSERT
        KASSERT(_us >= 0, ("Negative values illegal for ustosbt: %jd", _us));
#endif
        if (_us >= SBT_1S) {
                sb = (_us / 1000000) * SBT_1S;
                _us = _us % 1000000;
        }
        /* 9223372036855 = ceil(2^63 / 1000000) */
        sb += ((_us * 9223372036855ull) + 0x7fffffff) >> 31;
        return (sb);
}

instead of this
x * (((sbintime_t)1 << 32) / 1000000)

The times:
static struct ow_timing timing_regular = {
        .t_slot = 60,           /* 60 to 120 */
        .t_low0 = 60,           /* really 60 to 120 */
        .t_low1 = 1,            /* really 1 to 15 */
        .t_release = 45,        /* <= 45us */
        .t_rec = 1,             /* at least 1us */
        .t_rdv = 15,            /* 15us */
        .t_rstl = 480,          /* 480us or more */
        .t_rsth = 480,          /* 480us or more */
        .t_pdl = 60,            /* 60us to 240us */
        .t_pdh = 60,            /* 15us to 60us */
        .t_lowr = 1,            /* 1us */
};
