Could you add a comment as to what the function does, and use some
better variable names here to make it more immediately obvious what is
being done here?

Something like:
/**
 * ktime_roundup - Rounds value up to interval chunk
 * @ value: Value to be rounded up
 * @ interval: interval size to round up to
 *
 * Rounds a value up to the next higher multiple of an interval size
 */
static inline ktime ktime_roundup(ktime_t value, ktime_t interval)

thanks
