cpuacct has 2 different ways of accounting and showing user and system times.
The first one uses cpuacct_account_field() to account times and cpuacct.stat file to expose them. And this one seems to work ok.
The second one is uses cpuacct_charge() function for accounting and set of cpuacct.usage* files to show times. Despite some attempts to fix it in the past it still doesn't work. E.g. while running KVM guest the cpuacct_charge() accounts most of the guest time as system time. This doesn't match with user&system times shown in cpuacct.stat or proc/<pid>/stat.
I couldn't reproduce this running a cpu bound load in a kvm guest on a nohz_full cpu on 5.11. The time is almost entirely in cpuacct.usage and _user, while _sys stays low.
Could you say more about how you're seeing this? Don't really doubt there's a problem, just wondering what you're doing.
Yeah, I it's almost unnoticable if you run some load in guest like qemu.
But more simple case with busy loop in KVM_RUN triggers this:

Definition of struct cpuacct_usage can go away now.
Done.

Sure.

unnecessary whitespace change?
yup
