    cputime: Fix nsecs_to_cputime() return type cast · 69bb2600
    Frederic Weisbecker authored
    Even though nsec based cputime_t maps to u64, nsecs_to_cputime() must
    return a cputime_t value. We want to enforce this kind of cast in order
    to track down buggy manipulations of cputime_t such as direct access
    of its values under wrong assumptions on its backend type (nsecs,
    jiffies, etc...) by core code.
