sched: cfs core, kernel/sched_idletask.c
add kernel/sched_idletask.c - which implements the idle thread scheduling class. This further simplifies sched.c (under CFS), for example a number of 'if (p == rq->idle)' type of special-cases can be removed from sched.c, and schedule() gets simpler too. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
