We should only call need_resched() if the priority is lower than the
priority of the current running process. In amd64 a call to need_resched() sends an IPI to the other cpu. This fixes aja@ problem where he would move the mouse and see 60000 IPIs being sent. Thanks to mikeb@ for bringing that subject up tuesday. Actually found this after inquiring guenther@ about some changes in mi_switch(). ok guenther@ aja@
