I don't actually understand account_steal_time() and I failed to find the
commit which added account_group_system_time(), but this looks bogus.
In any case rq->idle must be single-threaded, so it can't have ->totals.

could be a typo - is there no similar construct nearby?

Makes sense in any case, applied to tip/core/signal - thanks Oleg.
