i have no objections at all against the whole sched.h cleanup 
(reducing header file dependencies is a much needed activity). But 
please keep it in a header file - i.e. put it into 
kernel/sched_internals.h. (like we do it for 
kernel/lockdep_internals.h)

that could then probably be merged with kernel/sched_stats.h as well. 
(which too is an #ifdef laden interface piece of code we have moved 
into a header)

Thanks,
