Subject: [PATCH RT RFC 2/7] sched: add the basic PI infrastructure to the
	task_struct

This is a first pass at converting the system to use the new PI library.
We dont go for a wholesale replacement quite yet so that we can focus
on getting the basic plumbing in place.  Later in the series we will
begin replacing some of the proprietary logic with the generic
framework.
