When running with 4096 cores attemping to read /proc/sched_stat and /proc/sched_debug will fail with an ENOMEM condition. On a sufficantly large systems the total amount of data is more then 4mb, so it won't fit into a single buffer.
/proc/timer_list also fails in a similar way. However timer_list has two seperate per online cpu loops which will require a bit more thought.
