CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING adds ns granularity irq time on each CPU. This info is already used in scheduler to do proper task chargeback (earlier patches). This patch retro-fits this ns granularity hardirq and softirq information to /proc/stat irq and softirq fields. The update is still done on timer tick, where we look at accumulated ns hardirq/softirq time and account the tick to user/system/irq/hardirq/guest accordingly. No new interface added. Earlier versions looked at adding this as new fields in some /proc files. This one seems to be the best in terms of impact to existing apps, even though it has somewhat more kernel code than earlier versions.
