commit 248cc9993d1cc12b8e9ed716cc3fc09f6c3517dd upstream.
The cpuacct_account_field() is always called by the current task
itself, so it's ok to use __this_cpu_add() to charge the tick time.
But cpuacct_charge() maybe called by update_curr() in load_balance()
on a random CPU, different from the CPU on which the task is running.
So __this_cpu_add() will charge that cputime to a random incorrect CPU.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
