[PATCH] sched: fix user time incorrectly accounted as system time on 32 bit

From: Stanislaw Gruszka
Date: Tue Sep 14 2010 - 09:46:07 EST


We have 32 bit variable overflow possibility when multiply in
task_times() and thread_group_times() functions. If overflow happens
calculated scaled utime value become wrongly small and scaled stime
wrongly big.
