//
// Period is the minimum period of time in 100 nanosecond units that child gets called.
// The child will be called back after a time greater than the time Period.
//
// SmiTickInterval is the period of time interval between SMIs.  Children of this interface
// should use this field when registering for periodic timer intervals when a finer
// granularity periodic SMI is desired.  Valid values for this field are those returned
// by GetNextInterval.  A value of 0 indicates the parent is allowed to use any SMI
// interval period to satisfy the requested period.
//    Example: A chipset supports periodic SMIs on every 64ms or 2 seconds.
//      A child wishes schedule a period SMI to fire on a period of 3 seconds, there
//      are several ways to approach the problem:
//      1. The child may accept a 4 second periodic rate, in which case it registers with
//           Period = 40000
//           SmiTickInterval = 20000
//         The resulting SMI will occur every 2 seconds with the child called back on
//         every 2nd SMI.
//         NOTE: the same result would occur if the child set SmiTickInterval = 0.
//      2. The child may choose the finer granularity SMI (64ms):
//           Period = 30000
//           SmiTickInterval = 640
//         The resulting SMI will occur every 64ms with the child called back on
//         every 47th SMI.
//         NOTE: the child driver should be aware that this will result in more
//           SMIs occuring during system runtime which can negatively impact system
//           performance.
//
// ElapsedTime is the actual time in 100 nanosecond units elapsed since last called, a
// value of 0 indicates an unknown amount of time.
