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.
