    indeed. Does the fix below work for you?

    Thanks,

    Subject: [PATCH] sched: fix kernel warning on /proc/sched_debug access

    Luis Henriques reported that with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y + CONFIG_PREEMPT_DEBUG=y +
    CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y + CONFIG_LATENCYTOP=y enabled, the following warning
    triggers when using latencytop:

    This breakage was caused by me via:

    7cbaef9: sched: optimize sched_clock() a bit

    Change the calls to cpu_clock().
