[Devel] [PATCH RH7 1/1] ve/proc: Added separate start time field to task_struct to show in container

Empty commit message body, please add here some small explanation about 
when (copy_process, ve_attach and prctl_set_task_ct_fields) we set it 
and with what value (0, starttime-ve.start_time, gettime-ve.start_time) 
and why.

We might need smp_rmb between reading is_running and real_start_timespec 
(and corresponding smp_wmb in ve_start_container), or use ve->op_sem to 
be 100% safe here in case of cpu instruction reordering. These can 
decrease performance of process creation.

Excess empty line.

Please move to ve_attach. I think real_start_time_ct should be set on 
ve_attach for current process and all others even if ve is not running.

Same thing with lack of lock/memory barrier here.

} else {
	tsk->real_start_time_ct.tv_sec = 0;
	tsk->real_start_time_ct.tv_nsec = 0;
}

These looks more generic for me.
