Yes, it was a typo, but the breakage wasn't exactly slight. Thanks for spotting it, this bug meant that anybody doing a sched_yield() on 2.1.30 will lock up the system completely. Oops.
Of course, I don't know of any program that actually yields CPU time to somebody else (it's a bit like "nice" - nobody uses it ;)
