Subject: [PATCH -tip] sched/cputime: do not scale when utime == 0

scale_stime() silently assumes that stime < rtime, otherwise when
stime == rtime and both values are big (operations on them do not fit
in 32 bits), the resulting scaling stime can be bigger than rtime.
In consequence utime = rtime - stime results in negative value.
