Subject: [PATCH] sched: Support compiling out real-time scheduling with REALTIME_SCHED.

Adds support for compiling out the real-time scheduler (SCHED_FIFO
and SCHED_RR) to save space. Changes sched_set_stop_task to use
SCHED_NORMAL rather than SCHED_FIFO, since the kernel only uses this
function as a fake scheduling priority for userspace to read to avoid
exposing the stop class to userspace. Bloat-o-meter gives a space
savings of 1877 bytes with REALTIME_SCHED turned off.

Userspace works fine with REALTIME_SCHED turned off. Processes
attempting to set a real-time scheduling policy get EINVAL, exactly
the response that the sched_setscheduler manpage documents you will
get if the "scheduling policy is not one of the recognized policies."
