[PATCH 00/10] vtime: Delay cputime accounting to tick

[Frederic Weisbecker]

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:

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.
