Yes.

No problem.

end-user don't see cputime itself. they see converted time.
cpuacct_stats_show() use cputime64_to_clock_t. it mean
the value less than 10msec don't display.

--------------------------------------------------------
static int cpuacct_stats_show(struct cgroup *cgrp, struct cftype *cft,
                struct cgroup_map_cb *cb)
{
        struct cpuacct *ca = cgroup_ca(cgrp);
        int i;

        for (i = 0; i < CPUACCT_STAT_NSTATS; i++) {
                s64 val = percpu_counter_read(&ca->cpustat[i]);
                val = cputime64_to_clock_t(val);
                cb->fill(cb, cpuacct_stat_desc[i], val);
        }
        return 0;
}
