Correct. Please consider CFG_HZ as a constant which has to be set to
1000 on all systems.

It has nothing to do  with  any  clock  speed,  like  the  time  unit
(seconds)  on  you  digital  watch  has nothing to do with the actual
clock of the quartz used somewhere in it.

No. CFG_HZ is always 1000.

With correctly implemented timer functions it just works.
