config attached.

Fixed and resent.

What a rat's nest of ifdefs! root_task_group is outside CONFIG_USER_SCHED, and so I kept that property in patch v3.

However, its definition in kernel/sched.h is conditional on CONFIG_USER_SCHED, even though root_task_group_empty() may exist outside of CONFIG_USER_SCHED, and root_task_group is referenced vi
CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED || CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED.

Starting to wish I had never patched this code in the first place (that barb is directed at the code, not you...)
