    nohz: Fix update_ts_time_stat idle accounting · 6beea0cd
    Michal Hocko 提交于
    update_ts_time_stat currently updates idle time even if we are in
    iowait loop at the moment. The only real users of the idle counter
    (via get_cpu_idle_time_us) are CPU governors and they expect to get
    cumulative time for both idle and iowait times.
    The value (idle_sleeptime) is also printed to userspace by print_cpu
    but it prints both idle and iowait times so the idle part is misleading.
    
    Let's clean this up and fix update_ts_time_stat to account both counters
    properly and update consumers of idle to consider iowait time as well.
    If we do this we might use get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us from other
    contexts as well and we will get expected values.
