yes, on tip/master:

  http://people.redhat.com/mingo/tip.git/README

do something like this:

 echo funcgraph-abstime > /debug/tracing/trace_options

when the function-graph plugin is active. This will activate the absolute 
timestamps column in the trace output.

indeed, tracking the 'scheduling atom duration' would be very nice.
