[Patch 1/8] Setup

delayacct-setup.patch

Initialization code related to collection of per-task "delay"
statistics which measure how long it had to wait for cpu,
sync block io, swapping etc. The collection of statistics and
the interface are in other patches. This patch sets up the data
structures and allows the statistics collection to be disabled
through a kernel boot paramater.
