Subject: [PATCH 2/3] s390/cputime: Provide CPU runtime since IPL

The cpu maintains a cpu timer which runs only while the cpu
is available to the system (i.e. not scheduled away by the hypervisor).
This patch introduces a function cpu_exec_time that returns a
time stamp which reflects the cpu's real processing time since IPL.
