I asked Martin the same thing yesterday, and he said that that recording
the purr value like Manish does is needed to support the cputime statistics,
but this is not the complete solution.
Manish, did you look at
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.10/2.6.10-mm3/broken-out/cputime-microsecond-based-cputime-for-s390.patch ?
I think you need to do similar things on top of you patch to really export
steal time etc. to user space.
