Unless I'm mistaken, you added traces to dedicated CPU idle sleep but not shared processor. Any reason ? Also I don't really know that tracing stuff but what's the point of having start/end _and trace_cpu_idle if you're going to always start & end around a single occurence of trace_cpu_idle ? Wouldn't there be a way to start/end and then trace the snooze and subsequent cede within the same start/end section or that makes no sense ? Also would there be any interest in doing the tracing more generically in idle.c ?
