[PATCH 1/6] cputime: Fix nsecs_to_cputime() return type cast

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

Even though nsec based cputime_t maps to u64, nsecs_to_cputime() must
return a cputime_t value. We want to enforce this kind of cast in order
to track down buggy manipulations of cputime_t such as direct access
of its values under wrong assumptions on its backend type (nsecs,
jiffies, etc...) by core code.
