oh, yes, i forgot - that collided with some changes to that file - 
percpu changes and 4Kcpu support. I think we should delay #4 to a bit 
later, when the other changes have gone in - or you could try to send a 
patch against sched-devel.git/latest which should show the merged up 
status of that code:

  http://people.redhat.com/mingo/sched-devel.git/README

sched-devel/latest has all of the x86 tree 'embedded' in it - plus the 
4Kcpu changes as well.
