[PATCH *, testers wanted] remove 614 includes of linux/sched.h

[Tim Schmielau]

Thanks to ongoing header file cleanups, many files including linux/sched.h
don't need to do so anymore. A patch for 2.5.39 to remove some 600 
occurences of
  #include <linux/sched.h>
and (hopefully) fix up resulting breakage because of indirect dependencies
can be found at

  http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/2.5/sched.h-16.patch.gz

Extensive analysis using ctags and grep has been done, but surely cannot 
detect all problems.
So I'd be happy if people compile-tested this for different archs and 
configurations and reported problems as well as success to me.

After obtaining sufficient feedback I'll split up the patch and pass it 
through maintainers, which however needs to be a three-stage process 
due to inherent dependencies.

Works for me on 2.5.40 with very few tweaks to pass from 2.5.39 to 2.5.40.
However, to supress all warning I must reverse somes removal:
