Note the seemingly unused cpu4.

Expected results:
stats for all plus cpu0-3 on the example quadcore system

Additional info:

This is a result of get_sys_cpu_nr making the assumption that any dir:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/ represents a cpu thread.  However there is at
least /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/ which makes get_sys_cpu_nr return one too
many cpus.  Patch below is tested and works fine here.
