Please don't do this disgusting thing.

There's a reason we have subdirectories: it's to group files together
and separate them out

Using name prefixing instead of directories is disgusting and wrong.
If you have this many random sched-ext files, it damn well should be
cleaned up and not be this kind of mess.

I've pulled this, but under protest. Proper hierarchical filesystems
have been available since 1965.
