Seconded.

An even nicer way (this solution seems somewhat asymmetric) than

   prio_array_t *target = rq->active;
   if (batch_task(p))
     target = rq->expired;
   enqueue_task(p, target);

may be

   prio_array_t *target;
   if (batch_task(p))
     target = rq->expired;
   else
     target = rq->active;
   enqueue_task(p, target);


It doesn't actually generate the same code here (I guess it is good
that gcc gives us this control).

I think my way is (ever so slightly) better because it gets the load
going earlier and comprises one less conditional jump (admittedly in
the slowpath). You'd probably never be able to measure a difference
between any of the variants, however ;)
