Subject: [RFC][PATCH 0/7] sched: Remove finish_arch_switch()

Hi,

There were only a few architectures utilizing finish_arch_switch() and it looks
like they can all do without.

This means we can remove finish_arch_switch(); partly to make up for
introducing finish_arch_post_lock_switch(), partly to reduce the number of arch
hooks to consider.

Much thanks to Ralf, Will and Chris for helping out with this!
