Moreover, information about what happened in the + * (relatively recent) past can be used to estimate whether or not the deepest + * idle state with target residency within the time to the closest timer is + * likely to be suitable for the upcoming idle time of the CPU and, if not, then + * which of the shallower idle states to choose. + * + * Of course, non-timer wakeup sources are more important in some use cases and + * they can be covered by taking a few most recent idle time intervals of the + * CPU into account.
