[PATCH] Tweak idle thread setup semantics
This patch tweaks idle thread setup semantics a bit: instead of setting
NEED_RESCHED in init_idle(), we do an explicit schedule() before calling
into cpu_idle().
This patch, while having no negative side-effects, enables wider use of
cond_resched()s. (which might happen in the stock kernel too, but it's
particulary important for voluntary-preempt)
