The idle and IO sleeptime statistics appearing in /proc/stat can be currently updated from two sites: locally on idle exit and remotely by cpufreq. However there is no synchronization mechanism protecting concurrent updates. It is therefore possible to account the sleeptime twice, among all the other possible broken scenarios. To prevent from breaking the sleeptime accounting source, restrict the sleeptime updates to the local idle exit site. If there is a delta to add since the last update, IO/Idle sleep time readers will now only compute the delta without actually writing it back to the internal idle statistic fields. This fixes a writer VS writer race. Note there are still two known reader VS writer races to handle. A subsequent patch will fix one.
