[Linux-ia64] Help with Ingo scheduler on IA64

I'm trying to get Ingo's scheduler working on IA64 but I've hit a 
dead-end with the head.S code.  Ingo's patch removes init_tasks,
so I've modified the assembly in head.S to point at 
runqueues(cpu)->idle, I think - it dies very early in the boot, 
and I'm not familiar with ia64 assembly.

Other issues, I had to build offsets.h by hand, and I moved some
stuff from sched.c to sched.h.  Other than that, it's H6 + ia64.

Anyone have any feedback on getting this booting?

Thanks
Nick
