sched: Fix task priority bug
83f9ac removed a call to effective_prio() in wake_up_new_task(), which leads to tasks running at MAX_PRIO. This is caused by the idle thread being set to MAX_PRIO before forking off init. O(1) used that to make sure idle was always preempted, CFS uses check_preempt_curr_idle() for that so we can savely remove this bit of legacy code.
