Paul Mackerras fa13a5a1f2 sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc
Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().

This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
account_process_tick.  If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before.  If
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
implement account_process_tick.

This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
suitable account_process_tick().

account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.
