Frederic Weisbecker 6a61671bb2 cputime: Safely read cputime of full dynticks CPUs
While remotely reading the cputime of a task running in a
full dynticks CPU, the values stored in utime/stime fields
of struct task_struct may be stale. Its values may be those
of the last kernel <-> user transition time snapshot and
we need to add the tickless time spent since this snapshot.

To fix this, flush the cputime of the dynticks CPUs on
kernel <-> user transition and record the time / context
where we did this. Then on top of this snapshot and the current
time, perform the fixup on the reader side from task_times()
accessors.
