We may want to create a separate inline function for above, as it is already
used twice in this patch.

But I was wondering if we can get some help from the scheduler to avoid such
code here. I understand that we don't want to do the aggregation in the
scheduler to keep it clean and keep such governor specific thing here.

But what about clearing the sched-class's flag from .pick_next_task() callback
when they return NULL ?

What about something like this instead (completely untested), with which we
don't need the 2/3 patch as well:
