Is that psets? If so, no thanks.

I want a simple, clean, quick implementation. I have seen patches that
do a lot more than what my simple implementation does, and that really
does not interest me and I suspect Ingo and others feel the same way.
Setting a simple per-task bitmask that is inherited is all we need.

Linux scheduler API is already our own standard. I'd rather support
that (i.e. add another simple sched_* call) than some evil other
interface - but that is just me.
