Seems like nothing changes

Powertop still reports ~300 wakeups for "<kernel IPI> : Rescheduling interrupts"

     PowerTOP version 1.9       (C) 2007 Intel Corporation

Cn                Avg residency       P-states (frequencies)
C0 (cpu running)        ( 4,8%)
C1                0,0ms ( 0,0%)
C2                0,2ms ( 2,4%)
C3                2,4ms (92,8%)


Wakeups-from-idle per second : 495,2    interval: 3,0s
no ACPI power usage estimate available

Top causes for wakeups:
  40,0% (330,7)      <kernel IPI> : Rescheduling interrupts
  12,3% (102,0)   USB device  3-2 : HP Integrated Module (Broadcom Corp)
  12,1% (100,0)       <interrupt> : uhci_hcd:usb3
   8,0% ( 66,3)       <interrupt> : extra timer interrupt
   7,0% ( 58,0)         amarokapp : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
   4,0% ( 33,0)       <interrupt> : uhci_hcd:usb2



and this is what system is doing while powertop reports above;
