Subject: s390/cputime: fix incorrect system time
From: Martin Schwidefsky <[email protected]>
commit 07a63cbe8bcb6ba72fb989dcab1ec55ec6c36c7e upstream.
git commit c5328901aa1db134 "[S390] entry[64].S improvements" removed the update of the exit_timer lowcore field from the critical section cleanup of the .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done and .Lio_restore/.Lio_done blocks. If the PSW is updated by the critical section cleanup to point to user space again, the interrupt entry code will do a vtime calculation after the cleanup completed with an exit_timer value which has *not* been updated. Due to this incorrect system time deltas are calculated.
If an interrupt occured with an old PSW between .Lsysc_restore/.Lsysc_done or .Lio_restore/.Lio_done update __LC_EXIT_TIMER with the system entry time of the interrupt.
