Good point.

I've added it to core.c because it's logically part of the core
scheduler and we have some calls which are part of the fast path and
thus we want to avoid function calls.

I guess that, provided we can rely on LTOs, we can try to move it into
a separate file. Let see what Ingo and Peter thing about this.
