Hopefully, you didn't take Nick's advice without thinking about it....

As I type this, powertop tells me:

Summary: 821.8 wakeups/second,  0.0 GPU ops/seconds, 0.0 VFS ops/sec and 18.8% 
CPU use

That printk is going to spam your dmesg pretty hard.

A better question is:

If prev is about to go idle, *what do you want to do*?  (Hint: newer
kernels already do a bunch of stuff when a cpu/core goes idle, you
probably want to make sure you're not working against something here...)
