. Dropped out Con's CPU scheduler work, added Nick's. This is to help us
in evaluating the stability, efficacy and relative performance of Nick's
work.
We're looking for feedback on the subjective behaviour and on the usual
server benchmarks please.
. Random other stuff.
Changes since 2.6.0-test4-mm4:
