The default hevaiour on x86 is as below:
1) The current CPU (active) is printed.
2) There is a hint for idle cpu. This is helpful for me to distingusih whether
the not printed cpu is in idle or a problem of stacktrace itself (which
really happed on me).

On the contrary, I wonder why the current cpu is skipped? Isn't it active?
