context_tracking: Export context state for generic vtime
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Export the context state: whether we run in user / kernel
from the context tracking subsystem point of view.

This is going to be used by the generic virtual cputime
accounting subsystem that is needed to implement the full
dynticks.
