The actual numa patches don't apply on top of that but at least the
conflicts are obvious to resolve. I'll queue up a test to run overnight
but in the meantime, does the current implementation of the NUMA patches
*depend* on any of those scheduler patches? Normally I would say it'd be
obvious from the series except in this case it just isn't because of the
monolithic nature of some of the patches.
