What I originally did did so for a good reason, which was that it was intended to support far more radical reorganizations, for instance, things that changed the per-cpu runqueue affairs for gang scheduling. I wrote a top-level driver that did support scheduling classes in a similar fashion, though it didn't survive others maintaining the patches.
