Responsible-Changed-Why: 
Assign this PR to John Baldwin as he has been involved in development in
these areas and may be able to comment on the best way to fix this.  My
intuition is that we should thinking about changing the kernel measurement
and reporting bits rather than top, as other tools will otherwise remain
incorrect even if top is fixed.
