Now I go and do a diff between kern/sched.c on i686 source and mipsel source. clearly , they are different. So the question is from kernel programming point of view, the bottom-half of interrupt handler is still considered interrupt handler? I don't see any platform dependent code in the scheduler at all. So why a mips scheduler is different from intel scheduler ?

Bs.  There was no need to change kernel/sched.c at all so you're probably
simply diffing the wrong versions.
