I'm not at all convinced you want to add the device driver time since CoDel is not controlling that queue. Instead, that queue is experienced by CoDel as additional round trip delay. I believe that would be better accounted for by a longer interval, that is if there is generally some known additional (additional to network path delay) delay, that implementation may need a longer interval.
