[RFC PATCH 02/23] sched: Add interfaces for classes of tasks

[Ricardo Neri <ricardo.neri-calderon@linux.intel.com>]

Add the interfaces that architectures shall implement to convey needed data
to support classes of tasks.

arch_update_task_class() updates the classification of the current task as
given by dedicated hardware resources.

arch_get_task_class_score() provides a performance score for a given class
of task when placed on a specific CPU relative to other CPUs. Higher scores
indicate higher performance.

The number of classes and the score of each class of task is determined
by hardware.
