Adds an additional function call to the sched_setscheduler to update the
waiter position of a task if it happens to be waiting on a futex. This
ensures that the kernel level waiter ordering is correctly maintained
based on the changed priority of the task.

I fixed the locking issue noticed by Thomas Gleixner.

This doesn't address userspace at all, only the kernel level wakeups and
kernel level ordering.

The additional locking added to the futex_wait function has no visible speed
impact, and only effects waiters which actual enter the kernel.
