Frederic Weisbecker 3f4724ea85 cputime: Allow dynamic switch between tick/virtual based cputime accounting
Allow to dynamically switch between tick and virtual based
cputime accounting. This way we can provide a kind of "on-demand"
virtual based cputime accounting. In this mode, the kernel relies
on the context tracking subsystem to dynamically probe on kernel
boundaries.

This is in preparation for being able to stop the timer tick in
more places than just the idle state. Doing so will depend on
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN which makes it possible to account
the cputime without the tick by hooking on kernel/user boundaries.

Depending whether the tick is stopped or not, we can switch between
tick and vtime based accounting anytime in order to minimize the
overhead associated to user hooks.
