sched: Avoid prev->stime underflow
Dave Hansen reported strange utime/stime values on his system:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/4/435
This happens because prev->stime value is bigger than rtime
value. Root of the problem are non-monotonic rtime values (i.e.
current rtime is smaller than previous rtime) and that should be
debugged and fixed.
But since problem did not manifest itself before commit
62188451f0d63add7ad0cd2a1ae269d600c1663d "cputime: Avoid
multiplication overflow on utime scaling", it should be threated
as regression, which we can easily fixed on cputime_adjust()
function.
For now, let's apply this fix, but further work is needed to fix
root of the problem.
