abcff86df2 powerpc/time: Only set CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SCALED_CPUTIME on PPC64
scaled cputime is only meaningfull when the processor has
SPURR and/or PURR, which means only on PPC64.

Removing it on PPC32 significantly reduces the size of
vtime_account_system() and vtime_account_idle() on an 8xx:

Before:
00000000 l     F .text	000000a8 vtime_delta
00000280 g     F .text	0000010c vtime_account_system
0000038c g     F .text	00000048 vtime_account_idle

After:
(vtime_delta gets inlined inside the two functions)
000001d8 g     F .text	000000a0 vtime_account_system
00000278 g     F .text	00000038 vtime_account_idle

In terms of performance, we also get approximatly 7% improvement on
task switch. The following small benchmark app is run with perf stat:

void *thread(void *arg)
{
	int i;

	for (i = 0; i < atoi((char*)arg); i++)
		pthread_yield();
}

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	pthread_t th1, th2;

	pthread_create(&th1, NULL, thread, argv[1]);
	pthread_create(&th2, NULL, thread, argv[1]);
	pthread_join(th1, NULL);
	pthread_join(th2, NULL);

	return 0;
}

Before the patch:

 Performance counter stats for 'chrt -f 98 ./sched 100000' (50 runs):

       8228.476465      task-clock (msec)         #    0.954 CPUs utilized            ( +-  0.23% )
            200004      context-switches          #    0.024 M/sec                    ( +-  0.00% )

After the patch:

 Performance counter stats for 'chrt -f 98 ./sched 100000' (50 runs):

       7649.070444      task-clock (msec)         #    0.955 CPUs utilized            ( +-  0.27% )
            200004      context-switches          #    0.026 M/sec                    ( +-  0.00% )

8c8b73c481 sched/cputime, powerpc: Prepare accounting structure for cputime flush on tick
In order to prepare for CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y to delay
cputime accounting to the tick, provide finegrained accumulators to
powerpc in order to store the cputime until flushing.

While at it, normalize the name of several fields according to common
cputime naming.

c223c90386 powerpc32: provide VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
This patch provides VIRT_CPU_ACCOUTING to PPC32 architecture.
PPC32 doesn't have the PACA structure, so we use the task_info
structure to store the accounting data.

In order to reuse on PPC32 the PPC64 functions, all u64 data has
been replaced by 'unsigned long' so that it is u32 on PPC32 and
u64 on PPC64
