Subject: [PATCH] sched: Exclude SMP code from non SMP builds

At the moment, a lot of load balancing code that is irrelevant to non 
SMP systems gets included during non SMP builds.

This patch addresses this issue and should reduce the binary size on non 
SMP systems.

This patch assumes that the "sched: Reduce overhead in balance_tasks()" 
(non urgent) patch that I sent on the 15th of August has been applied.
