From: Chengming Zhou <zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 248cc9993d1cc12b8e9ed716cc3fc09f6c3517dd upstream. The cpuacct_account_field() is always called by the current task itself, so it's ok to use __this_cpu_add() to charge the tick time. But cpuacct_charge() maybe called by update_curr() in load_balance() on a random CPU, different from the CPU on which the task is running. So __this_cpu_add() will charge that cputime to a random incorrect CPU.
