I see that sched_4bsd has a NOP callout with a purpose of forcing a
context switch (via softclock), so that something like a preemption
could happen (e.g. for threads in a tight calculation loop).
What serves the similar purpose for sched_ule?
Or, how sched_ule deals with the issue without needing softclock's help?
