Subject: [PATCH 5.14 546/849] cgroup: Fix rootcg cpu.stat guest double counting

From: Dan Schatzberg <schatzberg.dan@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 81c49d39aea8a10e6d05d3aa1cb65ceb721e19b0 ]

In account_guest_time in kernel/sched/cputime.c guest time is
attributed to both CPUTIME_NICE and CPUTIME_USER in addition to
CPUTIME_GUEST_NICE and CPUTIME_GUEST respectively. Therefore, adding
both to calculate usage results in double counting any guest time at
the rootcg.

Fixes: 936f2a70f207 ("cgroup: add cpu.stat file to root cgroup")
