Again, do a non-NMI profile and the top (at least for me)
looks like this:

samples  %        app name                 symbol name
473       6.3928  vmlinux                  finish_task_switch
349       4.7169  vmlinux                  tcp_v4_rcv
327       4.4195  vmlinux                  U3copy_from_user
322       4.3519  vmlinux                  tl0_linux32
178       2.4057  vmlinux                  tcp_ack
170       2.2976  vmlinux                  tcp_sendmsg
167       2.2571  vmlinux                  U3copy_to_user

That tcp_v4_rcv() hit is %98 on the wake_up() call it does.
