Why didn't another process cut in from 1392.752092 to 1392.839464? In
the schedule grep normally runs for cat are half as long e.g.:
<idle>-0 [000] 1392.747102: __switch_to <-schedule
cat-7717 [000] 1392.747103: del_timer <-schedule_timeout
cat-7717 [000] 1392.747107:
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible <-msleep
cat-7717 [000] 1392.747107: schedule_timeout
<-schedule_timeout_uninterruptible
cat-7717 [000] 1392.747108: init_timer <-schedule_timeout
cat-7717 [000] 1392.747108: __mod_timer <-schedule_timeout
cat-7717 [000] 1392.747111: __switch_to <-schedule
<idle>-0 [000] 1392.749067: account_scheduler_latency
<-enqueue_task_fair
Further why (after taking a break to process the ath5k interrupt) did it
not schedule another process other than cat until 1393.033226:
