Please consider this patch for 2.6.23.2
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/4/389

tested by me in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/5/150

to fix the regression first reported in
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/3/123

Cause of the wrong display in top is the value of stime in /proc/<pid>/stat
decreasing occasionally.

The issue is also registered as:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9135

Thanks,
Frans Pop
