If you define a new cputime primitive it is not enough to add it to the
generic cputime header. You have to add it to the arch-specific cputime
header for ia64, powerpc and s390 as well. Otherwise the build will
break with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y on these architectures once the
new primitive is used.
