Current idle time in kstat is based on jiffies and is coarse grained. tick_sched.idle_sleeptime is making some attempt to keep track of idle time in a fine grained manner. But, it is not handling the time spent in interrupts fully. Make tick_sched.idle_sleeptime accurate with respect to time spent on handling interrupts and also add tick_sched.idle_lastupdate, which keeps track of last time when idle_sleeptime was updated. This statistics will be crucial for cpufreq-ondemand governor, which can shed some conservative gaurd band that is uses today while setting the frequency. The ondemand changes that uses the exact idle time is coming soon.
