Be very carefull with that you do in your callback. Since you are deep
in the scheduler, most things you try to do will kill you! Blocking is
defiantly out.

The other way to do what you want is to use the use the
instrumentation code. It logs an event when interesting things happen,
and context switch is one of the interesting things. See the
documentation.

One thing to watch out for. Processing time for ISR and DSR will
appear in what ever thread was running at the time.
