I plan to make staircase v15 which is just this change, which would then need 
to be resunc with plugsched. Unfortunately this needs code in 
account_system_time which is not open to the schedulers in plugsched 
currently so it needs more plugsched code to go in. I suspect other 
schedulers may want to hook into this function, but I know you're currently 
busy with smp nice to hack this in. I may look at doing it myself when I have 
time if you don't have time.

Cheers,
Con
