I was a bit confused by Mirek's comment ;-) Anyway, the following works for me:

@@ -406,9 +406,12 @@ void klp_try_complete_transition(void)
 		task = idle_task(cpu);
 		if (cpu_online(cpu)) {
 			int ret = klp_try_switch_task(task);
-			if (ret == -EBUSY)
-				wake_up_if_idle(cpu);
-			complete = !ret;
+			if (ret) {
+				complete = false;
+				/* Make idle task go through the main loop. */
+				if (ret == -EBUSY)
+					wake_up_if_idle(cpu);
+			}
 		} else if (task->patch_state != klp_target_state) {
 			/* offline idle tasks can be switched immediately */
 			clear_tsk_thread_flag(task, TIF_PATCH_PENDING);
