How about this instead.

sched/cputime: Fix NO_HZ_FULL getrusage() monotonicity regression

Roughly 10% of the time, ltp testcase getrusage04 fails:
getrusage04    0  TINFO  :  Expected timers granularity is 4000 us
getrusage04    0  TINFO  :  Using 1 as multiply factor for max [us]time increment (1000+4000us)!
getrusage04    0  TINFO  :  utime:           0us; stime:         179us
getrusage04    0  TINFO  :  utime:        3751us; stime:           0us
getrusage04    1  TFAIL  :  getrusage04.c:133: stime increased > 5000us:

If ->sum_exec_runtime has moved beyond the rtime of ->prev_cputime, but
no time has as yet been accounted to the task, bail.
