sched/cputime: Do not scale when utime == 0
scale_stime() silently assumes that stime < rtime, otherwise when stime == rtime and both values are big enough (operations on them do not fit in 32 bits), the resulting scaling stime can be bigger than rtime. In consequence utime = rtime - stime results in negative value. User space visible symptoms of the bug are overflowed TIME values on ps/top, for example: $ ps aux | grep rcu root 8 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:42 0:00 [rcuc/0] root 9 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:42 0:00 [rcub/0] root 10 62422329 0.0 0 0 ? R 12:42 21114581:37 [rcu_preempt] root 11 0.1 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:42 0:02 [rcuop/0] root 12 62422329 0.0 0 0 ? S 12:42 21114581:35 [rcuop/1] root 10 62422329 0.0 0 0 ? R 12:42 21114581:37 [rcu_preempt] or overflowed utime values read directly from /proc/$PID/stat Reference: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/20/259 Reported-and-tested-by: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Paul E.
