requeue_granularity

Please include in at least 2 -mm releases


[-- Attachment #1.2: sched-requeue_granularity.diff --]
[-- Type: text/x-patch, Size: 834 bytes --]

Change the granularity code to requeue tasks at their best priority
instead of changing priority while they're running. This keeps tasks at
their top interactive level during their whole timeslice.
