mainlining shenanigans

Kcpustat is not correctly supported on nohz_full CPUs. The tick doesn't fire and the cputime therefore doesn't move forward. The issue has shown up after the vanishing of the remaining 1Hz which has made the stall visible. We are solving that with checking the task running on a CPU through RCU and reading its vtime delta that we add to the raw kcpustat values. We make sure that we fetch a coherent raw-kcpustat/vtime-delta couple sequence while checking that the CPU referred by the target vtime is the correct one, under the locked vtime seqcount. Only CPUTIME_SYSTEM is handled here as a start because it's the trivial case. User and guest time will require more preparation work to correctly handle niceness.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
