I've compiled 2.6.23-rc3 with -hrt2 for testing today because it is said 
to have this new deferred timers feature which is said to reduce wakeups 
of the cpu.
But instead of less wakeups I get more and new ones with 2.6.23-rc3:

  23.1% ( 20.0)             mount : xfs_mru_cache_create 
(delayed_work_timer_fn)
  23.1% ( 20.0)     <kernel core> : xfs_mru_cache_create 
(delayed_work_timer_fn)
  23.1% ( 20.0)     <kernel core> : usb_hcd_poll_rh_status (rh_timer_func)
  11.6% ( 10.0)     <kernel core> : ehci_work (ehci_watchdog)

The ehci_watchdog used to be there before, but the other ones weren't 
there before - at least the xfs stuff. Maybe I did not see them because 
they caused less wakeups, but with 2.6.23-rc3 the 20 wakeups per second 
are there all the time.
Is there anything I can do about it or are those new wakeups not 
supposed to occur all the time and something is wrong?!
