sched: account system time properly

Browse Source 
Andrew Gallatin reported that IRQ and SOFTIRQ times were
sometime not reported correctly on recent kernels, and even
bisected to commit 457533a7d3
([PATCH] fix scaled & unscaled cputime accounting) as the first
bad commit.

Further analysis pointed that commit
79741dd357 ([PATCH] idle cputime
accounting) was the real cause of the problem.

account_process_tick() was not taking into account timer IRQ
interrupting the idle task servicing a hard or soft irq.

On mostly idle cpu, irqs were thus not accounted and top or
mpstat could tell user/admin that cpu was 100 % idle, 0.00 %
irq, 0.00 % softirq, while it was not.

[ Impact: fix occasionally incorrect CPU statistics in top/mpstat ]
