SubjectRe: [PATCH RESEND 0/4] nohz: Fix racy sleeptime stats
While at it.

I do not also understand the cpu_online() checks in fs/proc/stat.c.

OK, I agree, if cpu is offline it should not participate in cpu
summary. But if it goes offline, why it should switch from
->iowait_sleeptime + cpustat[CPUTIME_IDLE] as it seen by /proc/stat?

This can be another source of "idle goes backward", no?

IOW. Ignoring the other problems we have, perhaps something like
below makes sense?

Oleg.
