📄 Description

Improves frametime consistency at 60Hz/60fps on Windows platform.

I noticed the framerate jumping between 59fps and 60fps regularly, causing visible hitching. Some games seem to be affected worse than others.

Here's a before and after of frametime graph:

Performance on my system with this change seems about the same - possibly even a couple of % faster (the CPU spends a little less time inside sceKernelGettimeofday)
