Sorry to have to go back on my previous email, but
this is now a NAK
The above code can end up passing a negative number
to account_system_time(), which in turn can cause a
divide by zero in scale_stime()
The code needs to ensure that if all the time that
passed was accounted as steal time (which could be
more jiffies than expected, due to remaining partial
jiffies in steal_account_process_tick), the function
does not call account_system_time().
