Silly precision in a timing macros

The precision provided by timing macros (for latency and executin times)
are a bit silly, since it holds room for 6 decimal points but only ever
uses 3 of them (a limit in the Linux kernel, I've heard).
The attached patch takes care of that, and also fixes a couple of
warnings (use of 'l' length character with 'f' type character) for those
selfsame macros.
In the passing, it removes an unused variable (encoded_buffer) from
process_macros, and fixes the above error message for a couple of debug
printlines in config.c.
To apply only the precision part, remove the first files'
(base/config.c) hunks entirely and remove the first hunk from the second
file (base/utils.c).
On a side-note, I'm really glad development seems to have taken a huge
leap forward again.
