It is actually. The name of the probe is idle-state-transition, and it 
will fire where the CPU "halts" (OPL/sun4u), or in the case of sun4v 
"yields" to the hypervisor.

Now that the probes are in place, i'll work on making some of the 
PowerTop command output more platform appropriate.

Thanks,
-Eric
