This change causes the following compile errors on m68k:

spin_lock_irq
    -> _spin_lock_irq
    -> preempt_disable
    -> inc_preempt_count
    -> add_preempt_count
    -> preempt_count
    -> current_thread_info
    -> task_thread_info
which needs the definition of struct task_struct.

The patch below fixes it by including <linux/sched.h> in
kernel/time/clocksource.c. But perhaps this is the right time to move
struct task_struct to its own include instead?

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
