Subject[RFC][PATCH 4/4] sched: Micro optimization in pick_next_task() and in check_preempt_curr()
From: Kirill Tkhai <tkhai@yandex.ru>

This introduces an optimization based on xxx_sched_class addresses
in two hot scheduler functions: pick_next_task() and check_preempt_curr().

It is possible to compare pointers to sched classes to check, which
of them has a higher priority, instead of current iterations using
for_each_class().

One more result of the patch is that size of object file becomes a little
less (excluding added BUG_ON(), which goes in __init section):

$size kernel/sched/core.o
text data bss dec hex filename
before: 66446 18957 676 86079 1503f kernel/sched/core.o
after: 66398 18957 676 86031 1500f kernel/sched/core.o
