Thanks for finding that. Ack! I did a quick merge of my well-tested patches with the cputime_t stuff, and apparently didn't do quite as much testing as I thought I did. There was a little query/replace error in my per-process-itimer-cpu patch now in -mm. Your patch is necessary but not sufficient. This patch fixes all the errors.
