I think this needs __sched or it's the only thing that ever shows up
in wchan. E.g.

16995 0 bash S __schedule_loop.constprop.0
17036 1 kworker/ I __schedule_loop.constprop.0
17151 1 kworker/ I __schedule_loop.constprop.0
17235 0 sleep S __schedule_loop.constprop.0
17236 4 ps R -

vs

10417 1 kworker/ I worker_thread
10665 1 kworker/ I worker_thread
10670 4 sshd D -
10674 4 bash S do_wait
10701 0 sleep S hrtimer_nanosleep
10702 4 ps R -

Otherwise, looking forward to getting this and the rest of RT in...

Cheers,
Phil
