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,
Ingo
