Either I forgot to pack my eyeballs, or laptop is just too dinky and
annoying.  Now back home on beloved box, this little bugger poked me
dead in the eye.

Something else is seriously wrong though.  36.1 with attached (plus
sched, cgroup: Fixup broken cgroup movement) works a treat, whereas
37.git and tip with fixlet below both suck rocks.  With a make -j40
running, wakeup-latency is showing latencies of >100ms, amarok skips,
mouse lurches badly.. generally horrid.  Something went south.

sched: fix 3d4b47b4 typo.
