hm, why is CFS in mainline a problem? The CFS merge should make the life
of development/test patches like plugsched conceptually easier. (it will
certainly cause a lot of churn, but that's for the better i think.)

Most of the schedulers in plugsched should be readily adaptable to the
modular scheduling-policy scheme of the upstream scheduler. I'm sure
there will be some minor issues as isolation of the modules is not
enforced right now - and i'd be happy to review (and potentially apply)
common-sense patches that improve the framework.
