sched: fix mysql+oltp regression
Defer commit
6d299f1b53b84e2665f402d9bcc494800aba6386 to the next release.
Testing of the tip/sched/clock tree revealed a mysql+oltp regression
which bisection eventually traced back to this commit in mainline.
Pertinent test results: Three run sysbench averages, throughput units
in read/write requests/sec.

Note: subsequent commits hide the majority of this regression until you
apply the clock fixes, at which time it reemerges at full magnitude.
We cannot see anything bad about the change itself so we defer it to the
next release until this problem is fully analysed.
