This is a trial version. (may hunk with the latest mmotm)
seems overkill ?

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@...fujitsu.com>
cgroup/cpuacct subsystem counts cpu usage by 64bit coutnter in
per-cpu object. In read-side (via cpuacct.usage file), for reading 64bit
value in safe manner, it takes rq->lock of (other) cpus.
In general, taking rq->lock of other cpus from codes not for scheduler
is not good. This patch tries to remove rq->lock used in read-side.
To read 64bit value in safe, this patch uses seqcounter.
Pros.
- rq->lock is not necessary.
Cons.
- When updating counter, sequence number must be updated.
(I hope this per-cpu sequence number is on cache...)
- not simple.
