I found another problem with this patch: why do you convert the
idletime from cputime_t to clock_t ? The call to cputime_to_timespec
takes a cputime_t and the conversion from cputime to clock_t returns a
value that is way to small on s390. After removing that line it works
for me but I wonder why you added it.
