Even if it does, a bit check and an equal check are pretty negligible
in difference wrt execution time. I would choose whatever is the most
readable to humans.

 flags == SCHED_CPUFREQ_IDLE

will tell me (as a reviewer) that we expect no other flag to be set.

 flags & SCHED_CPUFREQ_IDLE

will tell me that we only care about the IDLE flag.

Which ever is the more meaningful is what should be used.
