Yeah, other code is much simpler. The sched code has been a bit tricky
to figure out.

What you've got below is almost exactly what I had in my first attempt
at this (that I never posted). What I was missing and couldn't track
down were the places you used sched_class_above(). I should have sent
_that_ patch and asked where the comparisons were that I couldn't find.
I think what you've got is much cleaner, as it makes the for loop use
the normal iterator idiom.

Thank you!
