[PATCH 0/6] sched/nohz: Make the rest of kcpustat vtime aware v2

for the record)

After review from Peter, I eventually gave up with the idea of fixing
the nice fields of kcpustat. Therefore if a nice update happens on a
task while it runs on a nohz_full CPU, the whole cputime will be
accounted under the nice value observed at accounting time, hence the
possibility of a nice VS unnice kcpustat inacurrate distribution.

But that's a lesser evil compared to interrupting a nohz_full CPU, which
would be required to fix that. Also users of nohz_full shouldn't care
about nice at all since a single task is expected to run on the CPU.
