There are two expressions in kernel/sched.c that are always false since
they test for <0 but the result of the expression is unsigned so they will
never be less than zero. This patch implement the logic that I believe is
intended without the signedness issue and without the nasty casts.
<disclaimer>patch is compile tested only</disclaimer>
