This introduces an optimization based on xxx_sched_class addresses
in two hot scheduler functions: pick_next_task() and check_preempt_curr().
It is possible to compare pointers to sched classes to check, which
of them has a higher priority, instead of current iterations using
for_each_class().
One more result of the patch is that size of object file becomes a little
less (excluding added BUG_ON(), which goes in __init section):
$size kernel/sched/core.o
