[RESEND 2][PATCH 3/4] modify account_system_time() to update guest time in cpustat and task_struct

[PATCH 3/4] modify account_system_time() to add cputime to cpustat->guest if we
are running a VCPU. We add this cputime to  cpustat->user instead of
cpustat->system because this part of KVM code is in fact user code although it
is executed in the kernel. We duplicate VCPU time between guest and user to
allow an unmodified "top(1)" to display correct value. A modified "top(1)" is
able to display good cpu user time and cpu guest time by subtracting cpu guest
time from cpu user time. Update "gtime" in task_struct accordingly.

Hi,
Please use kernel-doc notation here:
(see Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt or source file examples
or ask)

easy fix:

 /*
+ * Account guest cpu time to a process.

/**
 * account_guest_time - Account guest cpu time to a process.

+ * @p: the process that the cpu time gets accounted to
+ * @cputime: the cpu time spent in virtual machine since the last update
+ */
+void account_guest_time(struct task_struct *p, cputime_t cputime)
+{

Thanks.

thank you for the comment.

But I just made a cut&past of the comment of the function above.

Should I be consistent with the doc or with the source ?

I see.  That entire file could use some kernel-doc-ization.

I suppose that lessens the need for you to make such a change.
I'll probably do it some slow night then.

Thanks,
