vtime: Fix racy cputime delta update
get_vtime_delta() must be called under the task vtime_seqlock
with the code that does the cputime accounting flush.
Otherwise the cputime reader can be fooled and run into
a race where it sees the snapshot update but misses the
cputime flush. As a result it can report a cputime that is
way too short.
Fix vtime_account_user() that wasn't complying to that rule.
