Subject[PATCH 00/10] vtime: Delay cputime accounting to tick
Date
This follows up Martin Schwidefsky's patch which propose to delay
cputime accounting to the tick in order to minimize the calls to
account_system_time() and alikes as these functions can carry quite some
overhead:

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161121111728.13a0a3db@mschwide

The set includes Martin's patch, rebased on top of tip:sched/core and
latest s390 changes, and extends it to the other implementations of
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE (powerpc and ia64) along with a few
core changes to adapt the whole.

Only built-tested though as I don't have access to any of these archs.

vtime/acc

HEAD: ee6c393b212193bc01818c7cf4ae9cba3f469f00

Thanks,
Frederic
