Looks like we need to add a separate guest_nice, or get rid of guest time

Hmm, guest time is already exposed via /proc/stat so adding guest_nice is
better
if fix here? I don't know anyone utilize 'guest' value though.

No one uses guest time to my knowledge.  However, we can't be sure, so it's
better to add guest_nice.

Note you need to add guest_nice to user_nice, so old tools see it as nice
time (same as guest_time now).
Well, like this?

         /* Add user time to cpustat. */
         tmp = cputime_to_cputime64(cputime);
         if (TASK_NICE(p)>  0) {
                 cpustat->nice = cputime64_add(cpustat->nice, tmp);
                 cpustat->guest_nice = cputime64_add(cpustat->guest_nice, tmp);
         } else {
                 cpustat->user = cputime64_add(cpustat->user, tmp);
                 cpustat->guest = cputime64_add(cpustat->guest, tmp);
         }

In account_guest_time()?  Yes.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
