 * @file sched.h

 * A basic scheduler with simple FIFO threads' ordering.
 *
 * The functions below manage CPU queues, and are NEVER responsible
 * for context switches (see thread.h for that) or synchronizations
 * (see kwaitq.h or the higher levels primitives [mutex, semaphore,
 * ...] for that).
 *
 * @note IMPORTANT: all the functions below are meant to be called
 * ONLY by the thread/timer/kwaitq subsystems. DO NOT use them
 * directly from anywhere else: use ONLY the thread/kwaitq functions!
 * If you still want to call them directly despite this disclaimer,
 * simply disable interrupts before clling them.
