I wouldn't expect the unsigned long part to matter, except for the
forced split with
unsigned long :0;
itself.
Also, quite frankly, since this is basically very close to other
fields that are *not* unsigned longs, I'd really prefer to not
unnecessarily use a 64-bit field for three bits each.
So why not just do it with plain unsigned "int", and then maybe just
intersperse them with the other int-sized fields in that neighborhood.
I'm also wondering if we shouldn't just put the scheduler bits in the
"atomic_flags" thing instead?
