[PATCH 2/2][RESEND] Default iosched fixes (was: Fall back io scheduler for 2.6.15?)

[Nate Diller <nate.diller@gmail.com>]

Jens has decided that allowing the default scheduler to be a module is
a bug, and should not be allowed under kconfig.  However, I find that
scenario useful for debugging, and wish for the kernel to be able to
handle this situation without OOPSing, if I enable such an option in
the .config directly.  This patch dynamically checks for the presence
of the compiled-in default, and falls back to no-op, emitting a
suitable error message, when the default is not available

Tested for a range of boot options on 2.6.16-rc1-mm2.
