/* Usage:
 *
 *   double idleperc;
 *   getidle();
 *   ...
 *   idleperc = getidle();
 *   if (idleperc >= 0.0)
 *     printf("CPU usage: %lg%%\n", 100.0 - idleperc);
 *
 * Notes:
 * - This functionality can only be used by system processes.
 * - The kernel has to be compiled with CONFIG_IDLE_TSC support.
 * - Only one getidle() run is allowed per process at a time.
