Fix stop_machine_run problem with naughty real time process
stop_machine_run() does its work on "kstopmachine" thread having max priority. However that thread get such priority after woken up. Therefore, in the following case ... - "kstopmachine" try to run on CPU1 - There is a real time process which doesn't relinquish CPU time voluntary on CPU1 ... "kstopmachine" can't start to run and the CPU on which stop_machine_run() is runing hangs up. To fix this problem, call sched_setscheduler() before waking up that thread.
