Here is the second patch and the real fix in sched.c Fix coding style in cpuacct_charge() In sched.c, account_user_time() can be called with the task p set to rq->idle. Since idle tasks do not belong to any container, this was causing a panic in task_ca() in cpu_acct.c. Multiplying the time by 1000 is not correct in cpuusage_read(). The code has been converted to use the correct cputime API. Add mount/umount callbacks.
