[PATCH 28/32] nohz/cpuset: Flush cputimes for getrusage() and times() syscalls

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Mon Aug 15 2011 - 11:54:22 EST


Both syscalls need to iterate through the thread group to get
the cputimes. As some threads of the group may be running on
nohz cpuset, we need to flush the cputimes there.
